	I'm thinking of getting an XJack modem (but I'm waiting for a
V.34) and I already have the 3Com card you speak of.  A question:  Can you 
use the 3Com card on the network and the Xjack modem at the same time, or
does the 3Com card physically interfere with the phone like connection in the
XJack thing?

	The point is--does it *function*?  If so, who cares what EZPlay has to
say about the 3Com card?

	Just FYI, the 3Com card doesn't require or use any of the EZPlay or
PCMCIA card services drivers.  In fact, sometimes these drivers cause it
problems.  At any rate, as long as it functions, don't be concerned what
EZPlay has to say about the 3Com card.
