Then you haven't heard about the CompuCom, which uses a proprietary 9600 protocol and sells for $169 to sysops, not much more to end-users. Of course, it only does 9600 (19.2 throughput) to other CompuComs. but it has MNP5. I do not have an address or phone for them though. (I have a Dual Standard myself.)
