- : I bought one of the new ones and all its chips are soldered to the
- : board. It is back at USR because it DOES have a bug (it 'freezes' at
- : times for up to 90 seconds). This bug has been reported by others also.
- : If I am lucky, USR will mount a socketed EPROM (flash ROM would be even
- : better).
-
- I have a modem (33.6, but it's not a USR). It does the pause thing too.
- I find that it goes faster if you press keys (I usually do
- up-down-up-down). Does anyone know what I can do about this?
