Okay, I'll bite. Does MicroPhone II:

allow the sending of modem (AT) commands (while not connected) to the
   to the modem without going through a bunch of menu gyrations to
   get in and out of local mode?

reserve ANY function keys? (XTalk reserves F6 (among others) for
   logging off... just great reserve a F-key that I use ONCE a session
   while making me hold down the ctrl-key (to use f-keys) for the
   WHOLE session!)

allow multiple phonebooks?
do phonebook entries have columns for name, phone number, comm para-
   meters, key file, script file?
can the user select multiple names for auto-rotation dialing?
have separate named key files, script files? Can these be changed
   while connected?

have a script language?

have a chat mode?

have a single parameter screen that shows all the various comm para-
   meters?  Can be called and chanegd at any time, with a few clicks
   of the mouse?

have a capture mode?


That should do for a start.  Oh, yeah, I nearly forgot... what does it
cost?  Are you shipping?
