I would be surprised.  Even though I usually don't require more than 300 baud
to type at a terminal, my systems support UUCP which wouldn't work very well
with 300 baud in one direction.  Do these modems do some sort of flow 
analys and adjust the speed accordingly?

I feel that the only good 9600 baud modem is one that provides at least a
full 9600 baud in both directions, with NO egregious delays.

p.s. the Microcom MNP level 6 comes close.
