OK, It's funky, it's set up for a 40 characture screen, it runs at 300/1200/2400 baud. But it does everything I need. And it's flat rate. I haven't had to go inside a bank, talk to a person or deal with voice mail push the button games since I got it. In fact, I pay my credit cards and Netcom via the phone now. P.S. After getting jerked around by Security Pacific, I thougt it was only fitting for them to be bought by BofA and dismantled.
