Regarding the ~$50 British 1200 bps modem:

Be warned that the use of split speed modems (1200/150, 1200/300)
is much more common in Europe than here--that modem *might*
be split speed and not a 1200/1200 type.  Also note that the
European 1200/1200 standard (V.22 as I recall) is not *quite*
the same as 212 standard, primarily in the call setup/handshaking
procedures.
