When I was a tech I installed many Phoebe modems. They are pretty
decent, and had models that could be jumper set to COM & IRQ (a very good
thing!). I bought my USRobotics before the v.90 spec had existed very long,
if there would have been a need for updating this was a better choice. At
this point in time, since the v.90 spec has been in use for quite some time
the Phoebe is what I would choose for myself. -Gary-

A search of 'harware modem' at www.pricewatch.com will return
several dozen. A Phoebe built around the Texas Instruments chipset
is about $40. It's basically the same modem as the 3com/USR that
costs twice as much.
