I have the Supra, and an older version of Flash.  The Supra is, as far
as most programs will care, completely Hayes compatible.  I believe the
only differences are in the S-registers.  Yes, it has a speaker.  I
have had it for just about a year now, (bought it at the West Coast
Computer Faire last year) and have had absolutely no problems with it.
It seems to be fairly immune to noise, even at 2400 baud, but my phone
lines are not particularly noisy, so your mileage may vary.

I don't think you can do any better for the price.

(Is it *really* necessary to say that I have no financial stake in
Supra Corp.?  No?  Good. (-: )

Longish .signature follows.  Skip now, or don't complain.
