A free offer to receive PRODIGY service for one month and a start up kit also
includes an offer to recieve a Hayes Personal Modem 2400 for under $170. I
received this offer in the mail and thought this was a good price for a 2400
baud modem and especially good for a Hayes modem. If you're interested in
this offer then call 1 800 822 6922 ext 600, they will ask you for a code 
number but just say you lost the reply card. Even if you're not interested in
the modem the start-up kit and the free one one month subscription may 
interest you.
