This is the one thing about me Telebit that makes me see red!  My modem
was only two months old when they came out with the 'upgrade' (more
like a bug fix, if you ask me), and they want to charge me an
extra $99 bucks.  Anyone with a sense of fair play would come up with an
exchange policy on these EPROMs.
