- It sounds like you've worked with quite a few voice modems. Could you
- share with us which ones you think sound best, and are otherwise
- reliable? This information is hard to come by!

- Given the serial port transfer rate issues you mentioned, do you think
- that external vs. internal versions of the same modem could affect
- sound quality, and do buffered UARTs impact in some way on the
- external versions?

- TIA.
