There are modems now (like Courier HSTs and Trailblazers) that, through special encoding and channelling techniques, can produce throughputs well above 14K bps. They all run over standard phone lines. These modems do error correction themselves, plus compression to obtain error-free high speed transmission. -- Marco -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= "Xerox sues somebody for copying?" -- David Letterman -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
