We've been using MultiTech 224E MNP modems on our Pyramid Unix machine for
over a year. We've had absolutely no problems using it both for dial in
and dial out. We talk to MNP and non-MNP modems in both directions.

The only problem we have ever had is that the MultiTechs seem to not like
power glitches. After some power glitches/failures, they may get wierded 
out until reset.

This does not mean that they are better than the Trailblaizer (we're getting
one of those as well) but from my experience, MNP should not be written off.
