I read on this newsgroup an article that mentioned MultiTech Systems.  So I
called up 1-800-555-1212 and got their number - 1-800-328-9717.  Next I rang
them up and found out that they don't sell their V.32 modem (model number
932EA) to the public directely, but through dealers.  They were kind enough
to look up a dealer for me (in my case Avnet Computer in Wakeshaw Wisconsin
414-796-2400).  They also quoted me a list price on the modem at $1099 but
said it would probably be less from a dealer.  I called up the dealer and
was quoted a much more resonable price - $680.  They are sending me an
information packet so I can see what the modem does and decide based on that.
I will forward what information I get, but meanwhile it might pay to call
MultiTech and find out who your local dealer is and go that path.  The price
seems quite resonable, based on mailorder prices for similar products!
