Office Club sells the Hayes Ultra for $599.  It's the best price I've
seen for that modem..

This one is available at $445 from Computer Discount Warehouse.  According
to several reports Practical Peripherals is a subsidiary of Hayes.  I own
this modem and have been quite pleased with the performance and support.
