I posted a query about the WorldLink 1200 portable Hayes compatible modem
a while back and received two or three favorable responses.  Since then a
friend headed to the mainland and tested two portable (cigarette pack sized)
Hayes 1200 compatible modems.  After looking at both the

	WorldLink 1200
and the
	Migent Pocket Modem

his comment was that the Migent seems like a better buy.  His reasons were
the Migent seems more sturdily constructed, comes with good documentation,
and the support staff at Migent are knowledgeable and helpful.

The migent is about the same size and price as the WorldLink 1200.  The only
drawback I can see in the Migent is that it lacks the LEDs the WorldLink has.
However, that is a relatively minor consideration.

I'd like to ask you net-folks for opinions if you have played with the
Migent Pocket Modem any.  The street price of the Migent is supposed to
be around $150, so the price is right for me.

Thanks...todd
