I would avoid the Cardinal.  My friend just returned his because it
couldn't connect to America Online.  Whatever you think of AOL, you have
to question a modem's engineering that cannot connect to one of the
largest online services.  I use an upgraded Zoom V.34 without problems,
which you can find at the same price points as the Cardinal.  The Zoom
does not have a flash ROM.  If you absolutely need this I would recommend
the Supra by default.
