- Does anyone know anything about the YORIKO range of modems??
- They are without doubt, the cheapest here in England, but I
- have never read anything about them.
-
- All I know, is that they are made in the US, and the model I
- wish to purchase has the following spec. :
-
- Yoriko 14.4i
- ------------
- 14400 bps
- V.32, V.32bis, MNP5, V.42bis
- (up to 57600 bps effective throughput)
- 14400 bps s/r Fax (G3) V.17
-
- All for just 199 pounds - equivalent to about 320 dollars.
-
- This compares with 349 pounds (560 dollars) for a Zyxel U1496E
-
- Modems tend to be really expensive in the UK, as the market is a
- lot smaller. A Hayes Ultra 144 costs about 670 pounds (1070 dollars)!
-
- Any comments on the Yoriko would be appreciated.
