From: Edward Huang <PGS.G.EH%MIT-OZ@MIT-MC.ARPA> Hello, I'm taking a look at the USR PASSWORD which seems to sell for $320-$375. At the moment, I have a loaned USR Auto-Dial 212A which works very nicely but was told it costs over $480. I'd like to know other's experiences with the autodial 212a and the password (RS-232 version). Thanks!! -Ed [DataTech RCPM 415-595-0541 vadic triple] -------

From: Keith Petersen <W8SDZ@Simtel20.ARPA> Check the ads in BYTE and MICROSYSTEMS. The PASSWORD modem is going for $297 in some ads. Several of my friends have purchased them and are quite satisfied. The ROM was updated some time back to make it compatible with the DC Hayes Smartmodem, although some of the self-test features don't exist. --Keith

<> I recently purchased a USR Password for 315 (not best price, but a good deal). I have been very happy with it so far. It does seem to run pretty warm sometimes. I have noticed a small amount of garbage, but can attribute it mostly to noisy phone lines... -- Mark Foster, Oregon Graduate Center
