Maybe so, but you get more for your money. This is assuming that you are not restricting yourself to 14.4 kbps. I'm getting an average of around 2kB/s sending compressed files in both directions over SLIP from a pair of ZyXEL 1496E+ modems. All I need now is decent fax and voice software :-) What I would like to see is the computer answering the phone, and if it is a voice call, say "Trying to connect your call..." and then ring the phone handset, otherwise do not let the handset ring. -- adam@veda.is
