greetings:
i am considering purchase of a telebit modem. it would be used on a Sun for
connection to other telebits. 19.2k is most desired, but 9600 is ok if
cost is too high.
where is a good place to buy telebits? any good discounters out there?
thanx in advance.

Hello All, I talked with a lady at Telebit the other day, and she informaed me that the Internet discount was no longer being offered. I can't personally assure you this is true, but unless I hear otherwise I will assume it is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internet : howardl@wb3ffv.ampr.org | Howard D.

There are two "discount" options available through UUNET that I think are being confused here. Each is described below. Our site purchased a Telebit through the IDNDP program listed below; however, I do not know if either program is still in effect, but I am inclined to say that the discounts are still available. 1) UUNET offers around a 33% discount to UUNET subscribers only. The discount is good for the entire Telbit line of products and has NO quantity restrictions. However, this option is not open to the general public; it is for UUNET subscribers only. 2) Telebit's IDNDP Program. (NOTE: This discount program is not maintained by UUNET. It is actually a program that Telebit offers). Any organization legitimately participating on the Internet by use of Internet domain names can qualify. The organization must reside physically within the 50 United States or Canada. In addition all UUNET members qualify for this program as well. There is a quantity restriction of 2 modems. If separate autonomous organizations reside under a domain entry, then each division is entitled to the 2 quantity purchase amount. The discounts are anywhere between 40% and 50% depending on the model of Telebit desired. For more information, contact the following address: IDNDP Program Coordinator Voice: (415) 969-3800 Telebit Corporation Email: idndp@telebit.com 1345 Shorebird Way Mountain View, CA 94043-1329 -- dean@coplex.UUCP Dean A.

The correct info: UUNET is now offering significant discounts on the entire Telebit line. Our terms are NET 30 and we add our shipping costs to the invoice. Modem sales are now open to the general public in addition to UUNET members. Sales to non UUNET members will be either prepaid or COD unless credit has been previously established. For purchasing information contact orders@uunet.uu.net > 2) Telebit's IDNDP Program. (NOTE: This discount program is not maintained > by UUNET. It is actually a program that Telebit offers). This is no longer (according to our local Telebit sales person). Contact Telebit directly to find out for sure. --asp@uunet.uu.net (Andrew Partan)

However, no one else mentioned them, so here they are again: I have found a distributor who will sell Telebit modems to anyone at prices lower than those offered by UUNET.

I suppose it's possible that things have changed since June 1 but I ordered a TB+ then and definitely got the discount. It took forever for them to ship it but I finally got the thing.
