DO NOT BUY DALLAS FAX MODEMS! I have a Dallas Fax pocket fax 2496P pocket
modem with the EXAR chipset which has a bug that prevents v.42bis connections
even though they advertise the unit as v.42bis compatible... There are only
two people in their tech support and it is impossible to get through
and when you leave a message with their sales department, they do not
return your calls...

Their prices are good but when you take a look at their support.... TERRIBLE!
