- Duane,
- I got the 28.8/33.6 Sportster and I'm really happy with it. First, AOL
- has a history of buggy connections (go to their Zoom page for
- example), And it was my understanding that if you wanted to connx at
- anything OVER 14.4 you had to connect to their 6$ an hour line. Also,
- you said that you installed your friends Sportster and it worked just
- fine so I wouldn't generalize and say that All Sportsters should be
- avoided. If you want to experience lack of tech support buy a Zoom.
- (No don't I wouldn't wish that on anyone) I'm sure you'll get some
- help from these folks and you'll love your Sportster.
