ATTENTION __________________________________________________________ U.S. Robotics and NON-U.S. Robotics SYSOPs: *** Upgrade to Courier HST Dual Standard with V.32bis *** HURRY - THIS IS A LIMITED TIME OFFER Valid: 3/1/91 - 8/1/91 What's the deal? U.S. Robotics loves sysops. And to prove our affection, we've implemented the program you've been waiting for! Trade-in that dusty ol' "other brand" high speed modem, or a prior-generation U.S. Robotics high speed modem, and get an incredible deal on a BRAND NEW Courier HST Dual Standard modem, complete with V.32bis. $299.* for USR SYSOPs (plus your qualified U.S. Robotics trade-in modem) $399. for NON-USR SYSOPs (plus your qualified non-U.S. Robotics trade-in modem) * Final cost with rebate applied. This offer is limited to one modem per SYSOP. All prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. Rebate information follows. _________________________________________________________ Here's what you get with this promotion: We'll ship you a brand new Courier HST Dual Standard modem, complete with V.32bis. All modems include a full warranty from U.S. Robotics. The advanced features on this modem include: o Courier HST 14,400 bps and CCITT V.32bis 14,400 bps technology IN THE SAME MODEM. You can communicate with the VAST installed base of Courier HST's in the BBS community, and can still be compatible with the new CCITT standard. o V.32bis (the new CCITT standard for 14,400bps full duplex communications -- 50% faster than ordinary V.32 modems) not only slows down when line noise is encountered, but also speeds back up when line conditions improve. o Complete compatibility with all prior generation Courier HST modems, and V.32 modems. In fact, COMPUSERVE, the leading commercial on-line service, has standardized high-speed hook up on the Courier HST Dual Standard modem. o The latest data compression and error control standards, MNP 2-5, and V.42/V.42bis - throughput reaches 38,400bps! o ASL* (Adaptive speed leveling). Only Courier high-speed modems include ASL, a feature that lets each modem channel transmit data independently. To take advantage of this special promotional offer: 1.
