From: Richard Fitzgerald <jazzy@aerospace> The signalman modem you speak of is available for (the smallest I have seen anyway) $319. This is a full AUTO-DIAL/FULL duplex 212A modem (direct connect) It also (If i remember correctly) derives power from the phone line, so is much easier to use/locate since you don't need an a/c outlet. Anyway, we have ordered 6 of them for work, and after talking with several sales reps and some techinical folks, they all say the same thing, they are full hayes smartmodem compatible. Looks like a very good deal to me. These modems are available from JADE in LA for about $359 ($328 for 6 or more) but I found them for $319 from IMAGE COMPUTER (619) 436-8317. I guess once we get them I can say a bit more about them, but I myself am going to buy one for me sometime next week. -rich (jazzy@aerospace)
