I like the news



Hey Bruce thanks for the hot Linux news flashes.  It is nice to hear info hot off the skillet.
 
For what it is worth I have been shopping for an external modem and came accross this $125 external modem from Actiontec.  I called the company and they said it has been out for 2 months and sold 24,000 units.  Has anyone tried one?
 
Here is some propaganda from their web site:   http://www.actiontec.com/products/modems/cwe/index.html

The 56K External Call Waiting Modem from Actiontec offers you unprecedented flexibility. In addition to the standard features found in top-quality modems, Actiontec now brings you the call waiting feature. You will never miss a call because you will be notified of incoming calls while you are online.
