- I would like to know about apple's expres modem for the Powerbook
- Duo. In MacWeek, they said that it would operate at up to 14.4k bps, but
- that some of the error correction and compression was implimented in
- software. Does anyone have one of these puppies and can they tell me how
- much performance degradation there is?
- If this modem is too slow, are there other internal modem options for
- the duo?
- Finally, the MIT Computer Store has them listed, but they don't know
- when the apple express modem will be in stock. Are these modems actually
- shipping right now?
-
- Thanks,
