- As you say, Group III != Class 2. It is worth pointing out again that
- NeXT's fax driver works with, and only with, the HSD/Interfax/Abaton fax
- modem. Other modems reported to work are the Dove (with a Dove supplied
- driver), a ZyXEL modem with the NXFax 3rd party driver, and possibly a
- Supra with a (not yet available) 3rd party driver.
-
- I clearly remember Steve Jobs saying at NeXTWorld Expo that 3.0 would
- support more fax devices; this isn't the case.
