I just learned of the existence of a modified version of the Avatex 1200-baud
modem that includes a built-in Atari XL/XE (or plain ole 400/800) interface.
For a 1200 baud, Bell 212 and Hayes 1200 compatible modem with interface,
the price is unquestionably right, namely somewhere well under $200.
In fact, the dealer price is a lot closer to $100, especially with a
special promotion that is just about to end.  But I will leave price
discussions with that deliberately vague sketch and merely mention the
source as Nite Lite Systems, Billerica, MA.  They can be reached by phone
at (617) 663-4463.  Ask for Paul Swanson, the proprietor.  He also runs a
Bulletin Board System (BBS) at (617) 663-4421.  Supposedly, Nite Lite Systems
is a name that should be familiar to operators of BBS systems, as there are
some 150 NLS BBSes nationwide.

NLS is also a 520ST dealer and purveyor of 1Meg upgrade services as well
as repair services on all Atari products.

NLS also sells the Avatex modem with just RS-232 C interface, and I believe
the price is $99.95, but talk to Paul Swanson for an official quote.

NOTE:  As I understand it, there is a special promotional price on the
modified Avatex modem which will be good for only about another week, so
anybody who is interested should NOT LET GRASS GROW UNDER YOUR FEET --
get in touch ASAP if you want the promotional price.  Good luck!!!

I am running one of the plain Avatex 1200 baud units tonight for the first
time and it looks like an incredible bargain at under a hundred bucks!
