>>What many people do not understand is that in most cases, except for
modifcation made to firmware, all modems are basically the same that use the
same chipset. In this case, the Best Data uses the same chipset as found in
the Supra, Zoom, and other Rockwell houses. I expect to see v.34 modems drop
in price to the sub $75 range by years end. 14.4 internals already sell for
less than $30 for PC's. <<
yes and no..comparing a Supra to a Zoom or a Best Data is like comparing a
Courier to a Sportster.
The changes that we make in our modems are HUGE..We do not use the
base/straight Rockwell code like many other companies. We pay the big bucks to
our firmware engineer and we spend the time fixing bugs that we find in the
Rockwell code.
