TSS answered you?  Good to know since I've dropped them a few E-mails over
the last few months and heard nothing :(  I ordered the Fax software almost
one year ago --- to TSS's credit, they have not billed anyone yet for their
"in progress" product --- and would like to see it.  Although I've defended
TSS against what I thought were unfair attacks in the past, this is getting
to be a bit much.  In my case I bought a Supra modem largely because of 
the supposed power of their software.  If I had it to do over again I'd
get a Zyxel, a supposedly better modem which already has running software.
(My Supra works just fine, but the "party line" on comp.dcom.modems is
that the Zyxel is superior).  

Does anyone have extended experience using the Zyxel software (NXFax)
with a Supra Modem?  And could anyone point me towards the location of PDFax?

My contribution will be to call TSS first thing Monday to see if I
can get a timetable out of them.  Will report any interesting results here.
