- I've contacted USR and they told me about a plan where you must
- trade in an existing non 28.8 modem and you will receive a check for
- $50 towards the purchase of a USR modem. Is this the plan you are
- referring to? If so, it doesn't seem like such a good deal to me.
- If not, how did you approach USR about this plan?
