  I was under the impression that one couldn't run SLFP with some of the
  high-speed Ann Arbor dialouts.  Anyone have any further information?

You certainly wouldn't want to.  slfp uses data-link flow control with a
fixed window of one frame, so it's nearly useless with any modem that uses
internal buffering, such as one using v.42 or v.42bis.  You'll do much
better with slip or ppp.

I've heard that you can't do ip at all on the "19200" lines.  By the way,
does anyone know what a "19200" line is, and how it differs from a "9600"
line?  I assume "9600" is v.32, but I don't know of any modulation that runs
at 19200.
