- They are not the same class of Modem, the Motorola has a FLASH DSP and
- the Supra does not...

-
- From past reviews the Motorola modems have the best connection rate,
- but to me they just don't look like a real modem, more like a baby
- alarm...
-
-
- There is one thing I like about the Supra is you know what is going on
- all the time with its LCD display....

- Rockwell chip set modems never get good reviews...
