I guess this would narrow my criteria even more. Currently, my 755C has a
Megahertz PCMCIA Xjack Modem installed in slot one. Any other card that
would be a possible candidate would have to work with the 755C's card
services. It would be nice to find a card that installs as easy and
seamlessly as the Megahertz Xjack did. Do you or anyone else out there have
any suggestions? The card would be primarily used under WfWG 3.11.
