I have just purchased a Radio shack direct connect modem, model DCM-3. It only
cost $89 Canadian ( = $69 U.S. funds.). It is quit small in size (3/4*4*4) and
the same colour as the Mac.   

It runs at 300 baud and has both answer/originate capability. It requires an
RS-232 connector which must be wired to a male 9 pin ($ 3.00), as shown in most
Mac books.

All in all it is cheap, small, easy to operate and compatable with the Mac. 

Considering that the cheapest modem around these parts is $200 +, it seems
like a good bye.
