he had it for 2 yrs and havn't had any problems...

it's not V. 90 though...
that's all he told me

180828 2003-10-06 04:35:00 Depends on the speed and is that enof for you. Non V90 can be any speed really ... u need to find this out. Eg, 33k, 28k or 9.6k or even less.. like a 1200bps (1.2k). I had a 1.2k external many yrs back...

I can pay $10 for something that will be useful to me, but won't pay $5 for something that is not suitable for me.

Hope this helps.

180829 2003-10-06 04:35:00 It might be a 33.6 kbps. Or it might be one of the two competing 56k non-standards. Some of these had flashable roms, so they could be converted to the final standard (V90).

If it works it's worth $10.

I was able to flash a K56 hayes to v90.
