- to let you in on a sleeper of a deal: the US Robotics Sportster line of
- modems is their consumer line, and their Sportster 14.4 Faxmodem sells for
- under $350 on the street (pick up Computer Shopper). It's v.32bis, of course,
- and comes from a company with some years of experience in high speed modems.
-
- I don't know why they don't advertise the hell out of these things; they must
- know the demand is there, and that the Supras/Zooms/ZyXels of the world are
- getting all the press....
