Larry's right! I've done some shopping around and found the US Robotics
Courier V.32bis to be a damn good deal for a high end (and extremely reliable)
modem. It is compatible with more V.32 and V.32bis modems than other brands
which I've evaluated (ATI, Microcom). The pricing is quite competitive too.
For example, I am selling the USR Courier V.32bis external modem for less than
$700 (Canadian), and I am sure mail order sources in the US sell it for even
lower price.
