A question for anyone using the US Robotics (gotta wash out my mouth now)
Courier PCMCIA v34 card.... 

Is there a flash rom for this modem??? There doesn't appear to be any at their
site... the only usrsdl.exe file specifically says NOT for PCMCIA.  A search
for any PCMCIA rom shows no hits...

Has anyone gotten one?
Do you have a newer rom from 1/7?
Where, how why:)

Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Well I actually called US Robotics (which in the past has lead to my
attitude)... but to my suprise, I was able to get support and work with them.
After testing their PCMCIA card with them, they agreed it was working to the
same level as their standalone modems (way below it in fact).

So we returned it and got another Cardinal PCMCIA card instead... After
connecting 26400 to the USR bbs with it (and their courier pcmcia would only
connect at 21.6 or 16.8), I know my opinion of USR PCMCIA is correct :)
(attitudes aside)
