[net.micro] uw-beave.461: Re: 1200 Baud PMMI S-100 modem

Actually, Anderson-Jacobson announced a 212-compatible acoustic coupler
about 18 months ago, but it has not made a big splash in the market to
my knowledge.  I agree that the 3400 will probably fade away over the next
few years.  One of their strongest points, the acoustic coupler, has become
much less important as more and more telephones are installed with modular
(rj11-c) jacks, thus making a direct-connect modem much more practical.
