After a long wait, my local compuserve node is finally being upgraded to 14.4kbps this month. So now I am in the market for a new modem to replace my 2400, and I am looking for advice. – Do you think it is worthwhile to jump all the way to 28.8kbps and be ready for the future? (I think some of the Internet providers are already using 28.8) I guess this partially depends on the price difference. – Are there any real differences in features or reliability between manufacturers? – Would anyone care to make any brand or model recommendations? Any help would be greatly appreciated. — Lowell
