There was discussion awhile ago in one of the net.news subgroups about
getting 2400-baud modems, but people said they were kind of expensive.
Well, in last week's Computerworld, there was an article about a
product from Chung Telecommunications Corp. in Palo Alto.  They have
a device called the Turbo-Max-2 that goes for $995.  It allegedly
"compacts and combines two full-duplex 2400 bit/sec asynch data
streams into a 1200 bit/sec modem."  Ms. Chung claims it is
"impervious to data content, protocol and line conditions."

Has anyone heard anything more about this, or seen it in action?
