Sorry, my mistake.  It's not normally like you to be serious.

What can I say?  The KTX detects all local telco tones, appears to
speed-shift correctly under V.34, and has no trouble maintaining long-term
connects (spent in excess of 3 hours connected to my ISP last night).  The
only real complaint I have is that they connect at 31200 or 33600 far less
frequently than the Courier, but aside from that, I cannot fault them in
any way at all.

True, we all have our crosses to bear...
