- I'm looking for a 28.8 modem, and will either get a Mot or a USR. I
- have a few questions.
-
- 1. Is the PowerSeries obsolete now? NO
-
- 2. Does the new Surfr series use a DSP processor? YES
-
- 3. Q: If so, is the DSP flashable? NO
- Q:: How about the main datapump processor? NO
-
- 4. Q: What IS the difference between the Surfr & Power?
-
- A: The ModemSURFR is not flash upgradable and has no security
- features. The ModemSUFRR is bundled with online packages, game
- software, and kids educational software.
-
- 5. Q: Is there any place I can download command sets for Power
- and/or Surfr?
-
- A: Not yet. This info will be on the WEB next month.
-
- 6. Q: Are the Surfr Modem and Online Surfr modems the same?
-
- A: The hardware for the OnlineSURFR and the ModemSURFR are the
- same. The OnlineSURFR is bundled with additional software for the
- Internet (Internet phone, Home page creator, etc.). The Online
- SURFR is also bundled with a complete guide to the internet.
