I have one on my Unix system.  Got it from Midwest Micro Peripherals a couple
of weeks ago for a few bucks less than the price you mentioned.

It works fine, except that the default is to not reset on DTR drop, which
meant that I ended up modifying my 4.3bsd getty to reset the modem and then
send the command to enable reset on DTR loss... they have a jumper that turns
the autoanswer-on default on and off, tis a shame they weren't smart enough
to toggle the DTR mode based on that switch...

There are no other jumpers or switches.

For the price, go for it.  If you won't/can't twiddle your software, and need
a good autoanswer for a unix system, go with something more like a Courier,
IE: with lots of config switches...
