This is getting OT, but I started off with a 360 baud acoustic coupler! I don't know the cost, it was in research at the time, so it was provided. The later "modems" where such an innovative invention. ;-) @Dave: Yes I was on Cserve too. I even wrote to them saying that I would market them in Thailand, but they politely declined, saying that they were focussed on Europe and the US. Well. -- Cheers, Thomas.
