Subject: AT&T DataPort 14.4K Report 

The AT&T DataPort 14.4K modem has generated a lot of interest on the
newsgroup comp.dcom.modems. An external model of this modem with Class 1
fax capability (including cable and QuickLink II fax software, yech!) is
being advertised in MacWeek (3-08-93) for $299. The offer is only good
through April 30, 1993. If you qualify under the Sysop program, your price
drops to $222. In response to the question recently posted to info-mac, I
sent one reply but thought that it would make more sense to summarize the
postings on comp.dcom.modems and prepare a report on this modem.

I have clipped responses from the following people on comp.dcom.modems 

karl@genesis.MCS.COM
dawson@willard.atl.ga.us
Adam.Frix@p18.f20.n226.z1.FIDONET.ORG
jmcging@access.digex.com

s.frazee@pdnis.paradyne.com   (in charge of the Sysop program)
pato@pdn.paradyne.com         (senior engineer at AT&T Paradyne)

If I missed your posting or if you have testimonials, bug-reports, and
further questions, please send mail to me at ehfm@midway.uchicago.edu

Also included in this report is the Sysop order form.

For a more formal review, check out the March 1993 issue of BoardWatch. The
review begins on page 14, "AT&T intros sysop deal on 14.4kbps modems." I
will include this review if I can obtain permission from Jack Richard, the
editor of BoardWatch.

14,400 Fax external   $299
14,400 Fax internal   $289

Call 1-800-554-4996 and charge it!
Call 1-800-544-4996 ext. 3503 for the dealer nearest you.

I am not affiliated in any way with AT&T Paradyne. Just a satisfied customer :-)
