- Hi,
-
- I've got a relatively old FAX (9600) / VOICE modem called TYIN2000.
- Superb Voice quality (including music, although I did have to write
- some utilities for that) and FAX protocols. It's main handicaps are
- relatively simply voicemail system (up to 9000 mailboxes) and low DATA
- throughput (2400bps). Since I'm using it only for FAX/VOICE mail
- system, that doesn't bother me. Rock-solid modem too. Very reliable.
- Hope that helps.

- regards and shalom,
