I found the add for the DoveFax Desktop (and other models) in the new
(not in MacWorld) MacConnection catalog.  For $279 you get a 2400 modem,
a 9600 group 3 fax, software and cable.  Seems very decent to me, nay,
better than decent.  I called up MacConnection and they told me that
delivery would be after the end of the month because they haven't arrived
yet ... pity.

Now the questions:

1) How good is this product, anyone know?
2) Why is the boxed version (Desktop) *MUCH* cheeper than the NuBus version?
   ($279 versus $449).
3) When you buy it, you get lots of free time on all sorts of services,
   are any of these worth it?  (best deal seems to be MCI Fax Service,
   which I haven't heard of ... just how much is $100 free fax time?)

As usual, if answers arive, I will summerize to the net!      - Yossie
