	A word to all of you ready to go out and spend $170 (+tax license and
delivery, of course) for your new 2400 baud modem.

					NOT YET.

	It seems there is a little problem with switching speeds in originate
mode.  It tries, but doesnt quite get there, if it does, it reports the
wrong speed and doesn't ever really connect.
	Here's the scenario:
	Originate a call at 2400 baud,
	have the answering modem answer at 1200 baud,
	try to negotiate down to 1200,
	fail miserably,
	try 300,
	this seems OK, report connected at 300, 
	don't be set for 300, sit and look stupid
	hangup

Everex is "looking into" what the have admitted is a legitimate complaint.
I'll see what kind of answer of fix I get from them.
The modem will connect fine if the originate and answer speed are the same
when the line is picked up.
