I would normally agree with you there, but I have found the Dynalinks to be
one of the better Taiwanese imports, and given that their 33600 V.34+ model
almost certainly ISN'T Rockwell-based, I now wonder if they're perhaps
rebadged USR V.34+ Sportster internals?  I'd love to see one close up...

Very droll.  Don't forget that V.34+ - or is it V.34 (1996) ? - was
supposed to be ITU-ratified this month, too.

DD> The V.34+ Dynalink can't be any worse than the V.34 Maestro.

Many a true word has been spoken in jest...
