Message-ID: <521@sering.cwi.nl> Date: 30 May 88 20:28:36 GMT References: <8805290728.AA02108@shum.Huji.AC.IL> Organization: CWI, Amsterdam Lines: 18 This is my third attempt to find out how to participate in the 50% discount for Telebit modems, so I am writing to this list As I understand it, Telebit doesn't deal directly with sites outside the USA. One reason is most likely that PTT's outside the USA all have their own sets of requirements, often needing a special firmware version. In Holland we have worked out (together with our national Unix User Group) a deal, roughly similar to the USENET offer, with the Dutch supplier of the Trailblazers. I suggest you find a supplier in Israel (or elsewhere in Europe, but willing to deal with Israeli sites) and work out a similar deal. -- Piet Beertema, CWI, Amsterdam (piet@cwi.nl)
