I've seen the Avatex advertised all over the place.  I know that,
for example, a local hacker-oriented store in Columbus called
MicroBatics carries them for about the same price.

The modem is said to be Hayes compable (except for some obscure
features) but I have no idea if it's any good.  It's a 300/1200
baud modem, as I understand it.
