subject: New Modem for 56k?

Hi Pete



[Thus spake Peter Collis unto Sunny Leung:]



 SL> You bet. The very reason for having a flash ROM is to avoid

 SL> having to send the modem anywhere for firmware upgrades! If USR

 SL> Australia insists on a return to base (in Melbourne) policy for

 SL> the 56k upgrades, I might as well go and buy a Rockwell 56k

 SL> modem.



 PC> Been tossing up whether to replace my old M11F on the mail computer

 PC> with a new shiny V34 job, Ones thing for sure it won't be an Austel

 PC> Courier. 



I wonder if the Banksia WaveSp is any good. $299 (IIRC) and it has 33.6k

and voice support, flash ROM and DVSD as well. The box claims that the

modem is upgradeable to K56Flex.
