Recap:	I got a 9600 SA for evaluation from a local vendor.  It didn't
	work as advertised.  I posted several messages to the net
	detailing problems with the 9600 SA, including some bug reports
	that I found.  I was criticized (and corrected on some counts)
	by some people.  However, a representative of PPI did indicate
	on the net that my bug reports were valid.

I got a copy of the newer version of the software for the 9600 SA.  I
originally had v 1.05, and PPI sent me 1.18 upon my request.  They also
promised that they would continue to send new versions of the software
- if they found and corrected any bugs - upon request.

The newer software does in fact fix the bugs I previously reported.  The
modem seems to work well, but I still have many tests I'd like to do
that I won't have time for until next week.  More reports forthcoming.
