[net.micro] 1200 baud triple modem with tone auto-dialer

From: Steve Dyer <sdyer@Bbn-Unix>

Does anyone know of a triple (103/212/VA3400) modem which also
supports an touch-tone autodialer?  Racal-Vadic seems to have
autodial triple modems with pulse dialing only.  I want to use this
with MCI/Sprint services, so I need the tone dialing.

On the other hand, maybe some of you can convince me that 212 1200 baud
isn't so bad after all.  I have always heard that the VA3400 system
is more robust and less error prone over the dial-up network.  Is this
anything I should care about?

(People on the TELECOM mailing list should respond by mail; I'm not
on that mailing list.)

Thanks,
