The modem I would suggest is the Hayers Ultra Smartmodem 9600 which supports
just about every sdtandard there is a known to man. It really doesn't matter
that much which one (v42bis or MNP5) (IMHO) if the main thing you are going to 
do is trandsfer files between the two of you. Both standards are supported by
lots of diiferernt wait, rented fingers...... different modems. Most of your
mainstreeanmn modems support v42bis but lots support MNP5. 
The Hayes Ultra is around 799$799 if you look in the right places.
I am not an expert, just relying on my experiences with BBS's and my job.-->supporting Appletalk network via modem.
BYE. BYE.
