- After being tipped off by another net person, I called Intel, who informed
- me that this offer is only good for the *original* SatisFAXtion modem, and
- not any of the 200/400/400e/etc. modems. (Though the form you download from

- the original model.)

- Very sorry to pass on incorrect information; I'm a wee bit annoyed at Intel,
- myself.
