Yes.

14.4K is fine. The increase in "speed" has more to do with the fact that
with the registered version VJ Compression can be applied to packets,
than with the speed of your link.

And in any case, 15 Dollars is so little to pay for all the work that
Holger has put into ppp.device. Without his having been bothered to make
the effort, there would probably be no ppp.device for the Amiga. If you
intend to make use of it, you should at least be bothered enough to
show your appreciation by registering it (and whatever else you're using
that seems to think your name is UNREGISTERED VERSION [THOR] ;-)
