I'm in the market for a good autoanswer/autodial 1200/300 baud smart modem.  As
per my previous article, you might realize that I don't consider the Hayes
smart!  I'm especially, but not exclusively, interested in modems that
have the smarts to realize when a line is busy, ringing, or has a dialtone.
I'm also interested in cheap.  There seems to be a new class of modems
coming available that use LSI technology to implement all of these functions
at less than half the price of the typical 1200 baud modem a few years ago.

Anyway, here is a list of modems that I have come upon recently in magazines
and in conversations.  I'm interested in any personal experience with any
of these or with any other modems in this class:

	Rixon
	Signalman
	Ven-tel
	U.S. Robotics
	Racal-Vadic

Please send many responses so that I may summarize to the net!
