I like the way it updates the screen since I always run at 9600 bps.  It can
receive data MUCH faster than Microphone I or any other Macintosh or
IBM+Windows terminal emulator I've seen.

I can see how it might be annoying at 1200 bps.  One thing you could try
is to use scripting to make yourself a command to put you into character-
update mode, using "send local" and "nextch".  You'd only implement
(yourself!) a small subset of VT100 commands, and only use it when you
were scrolling lots of data on the screen.  In full-screen editing, I
think Microphone II's method of updating is better even at slow speeds.

Another solution is to sell it and use your other terminal emulator.
