hi,

  can anyone comment on the Practical Peripherals 2400 baud modem being
offered by MacConnection for, I think, $189?  

  I'd like to buy a 2400 baud modem soon, and am concerned about the
following things:

  - AT command set compatiblility.

  - noise immunity.

  - ability to do pulse or tone dialing.

  - and, most important, the ability to mix pulse and tone in the
same dial command.  for example, the command I use to log into the
computer at work is:  ATDP####### W DT######## because my home line is
pulse but the second dial tone (after the "W"ait command) requires tone.

I assume that capability comes with the AT command set.

Any help is appreciated; I'd like to keep the amount under $200.

Rich
