[comp.sys.mac] 2400 baud modems

perry@killer.UUCP (Alan Perry) (04/21/87)

Hi,
   I have noticed the recent postings about 1200 baud modems.  I thought I 
might ask the vast resources of the world if they know where I can get a 
GOOD inexpensive 2400 baud modem.  

  I know that only the US people will probably be able to help me, but I 
figured what the heck...ask the world, they might know...

I am thinking of buying a 2400 baud modem for my mac SE.  I would appreciate
any reccomendations for modems in the $150-$250 price range.

Thanks in advance.

47st. Computer (800-221-7774) is offering the Hayes Personal 2400 modem
for only $129.95.  This is a plug in the wall modem packaged with IBM
Smartcom software.  The modem's standard connector is a Mac din-8 with IBM
DB-9 and DB-25 adapters included.  I have tested this modem somewhat and
found it to function properly on both Macs and IBMs.  The kicker is that
it has NO speaker, so you can't monitor a call by listening to the
modem.

Hope this helps you out,

A recent ad in MacWorld for "MacProducts USA" quoted a $99 price for a
100% Hayes-compatible modem called "MagicModem".  I'm skeptical, anyone
know anything about this beast?
