It's for real, and I still have it.  It's an internal unit, 2400bps  (RPI) 
data, 9600bps fax.  It worked well with the bundled COMit Lite,  but slowed 
down considerably with every non-RPI comm program I tried.   I used it for 
several months, before upgrading to a V.32bis USR  Sportster.  
Today, of course, the situation is reversed -- current Zoom modems  seem to 
be pleasantly "unsurprising", while USR's Sportster V.34  models have had 
some embarrassing firmware problems...and then,  there's the Sportster 
Winmodem, which has further damaged the  Sportster line's reputation by its 
very inclusion.  (I have nothing  against the Winmodem for those who 
understand what it can and cannot  do -- but it should never have been called 
a _Sportster_ Winmodem!)
