Basically the Netcomm was a rock-solid modem, both at allowing
other brands to connect, and holding a connect.  The USR
suffered from dropouts, both with other USR's and other modems.
The Netcomm + USR were both superior with their V42bis transfers
because of their 16-bit DSP (or something) on compressed files.

In short, he said the USR is not a $200 better modem.  It is not
even a better modem.  BFN.  Paul.
