- Since they actually didn't start shipping until less than a month ago,
- We finally got one at J&R Computer world in NYC, while visiting
- from down here in Baltimore. Their price was competitive,
- at $324.00, however the sales tax in NYC is over 8 per cent,
-
- As far as the modem is concerned, I've had fairly consistent
- 28.8 connections to my ISP's modems... I think he uses the microcom 28.8's
-
- The only complaint that I have is that neither Motorola nor SPRY, the mfr's
- of Internet in a box, which I currently use, are willing to research the best
- setup string for the modem in this application.
-
- Since this modem is supposed to be the only 33.6 that is fully software
- configurable, I say GO FOR IT.
