- Despite the fact that NeXT ISDN won't be seen until Nov, NeXTConnection
- is currently selling the HAYES made ISDN System Adapter at the price of $1199.
-
- I thought every NeXT is equipped with a DSP port and only requires
- a brainless $349 extender box to do ISDN. Why is NeXTConnection selling
- the product in places where there's no potential market at all? Shouldn't
- they sell ISDN extender instead, and put the Adapter with built-in DSP on
- MACConnection or PCConnection?
-
- Now, here's the tough choice......
- Should I go ahead and buy a Supra 14.4 or wait for the ISDN Extender which will
- also provide software FAX and MODEM at the speed of 64K bits/sec?
