Summary: Should people wait to buy a Trailblazer?  Maybe they'll add more features


One problem I've got with the upgrade is that quite a few of the sites that
I communicate with are asking me how good a modem the TB+ is.  We got ours
in November so we have the 3.01 firmware.  Some of them are looking for a
good modem for interactive use and I can now tell them that the TB is quite
good in this area.  However, I also have to tell them that they may want to
wait a few months and get a better product for the same price, since Telebit
may add more features.  I appreciate that Telebit is soliciting suggestions
from the net on what features to add next (I sure can't think of a better
place), but if I was looking into buying one right now I'd be quite curious
about whether waiting would save me money.

This is assuming that I got the same great half-price deal then that we got
on ours in December.  How about it Telebit, planning to extend the deadline
for those who waited and can now cash in on V4.00:-)
