- I assume you're looking at the OPTIMA Business Modem? Although this is a new
- unit so the reviews are really just beginning to come in, I think you'll find
- it does quite well. In PC Week's recent article on 33.6K unit, they
- discovered that thanks to the OPTIMA's higher DTE rate and compression, that
- it can actually outrun it's 33.6K competitors when transferring uncompressed
- data. I think you'll see most of the new reviews coming out find that it is
- extreme fast and has no problem talking to pretty much anything out there.
-
- You might also look at the feature set. The OPTIMA Business Modem has pretty
- much everything including voice messaging, caller-id, distinctive ring,
- dialback security, remote configuration and much more.
