I don't know if this is anything like what is being discussed, I just
picked up this group, but I am looking into getting a 9600 modem and
need some advice on what kind to get and what to look for.  I seem to
see that the V.32 seems to be a general standard for that rate, is this
true?  Should I bother with any of the other standards that might also
come with that?  I also hear about a 19.2K modem called Trailblazer,
or is that some kind of protocal?  I have seen some articles about how
you can get 19.2K from 9600 V.32bis modems.  Do these modems require
leased lines, or is an ordinary phone line ok?  Thanks for any help
you can give me here.
