Dan...
You might mention the (Hayes compatible) Haba 1200 to your friend.
I picked one up for around $200 new at a local shop (Fry's, for you
South-Bay-Areites) and have had no problems with it except that its
defaults include autoanswer - take a power hit while you're away and
it answers the phone before your answering machine can. I unplug
the phone line when not using the modem.

[Yes, $200 is twice what Rick was looking for, but $0.18/baud, new in
the box, ain't bad.]
