I need some advice in getting a faster modem for my ST.  I am currently using
a Supramodem 2400 with Flash.  I use this to connecto to my university account
to do projects, etc, but it is so slow it drives me crazy.  I thought about getting
a faster modem, say a 9600, but the prices I saw in some mags turned me off.
Today I was in Office Depot and saw a modem that might work for me.  Its by
Quicktel and is a 9600 fax/data modem.  I could care less about fax, but it 
looks like it's do the trick, but I worry that it won't.  I don't know if Flash
will be able to 'control' it (i've tought about getting Flash II but haven't).

Any suggestions?  I thought about getting this modem because its about $100.
Most the ones I've seen advertised were 2-3x the prices.  I'm one a tight
budget.

Email preferred,

Thanks in advance.
