No, Eric, warranties are not voided if the modem is not bought directly 
from PPI.  After reading your post, I carefully read the warranty card
and the statement of warranty in the manual.  Fortunately, your assumption
is completely incorrect.  Think about it: If PPI voided the warranty
on modems not purchased directly from them, resellers such as CompUSA
and Micro Center would have to cover up PPI's "LIFETIME WARRANTY"
stickers with stikers of their own stating "WARRANTY VOID."       
 
BTW, the statement of warranty does not limit the lifetime warranty to 
the original "end user."  Also, the modem is already spoken for.
