- It's not the ONLY class 1 - most of the modems I've had a chance to
- test are class 1, the supra being a class 2...
- And class 1 modems work with WINFAX PRO just fine.
- Many manufacturers have been reluctant to adopt class 2 because
- the current 'class 2' is a pre-release version. The official
- class 2 has just finished the approval process.
