- I suspect if you want to use a US version you could, as long as it supports
- pulse dial. I believe the only difference will be the cable connector,
- although I have not used a modem specifically in Italy. However, unless
- you buy it from the PTT (good luck) it may not be 'approved' in some
- countries. But that's between you and your Mac...
