Does anyone out there have or know of a list of reliable modems?
By reliable, I mean modems which have the least compatibility problems,
especially when negotiating with other vendors' modems. My understanding 
(which is probably wrong, so feel free to correct me, thanks) is that 
even tough a vendor claims to support standard (e.g V42bis), it may not 
always work with another vendor's 'same' standard (i.e. V42bis again). 
Probably one (or both) of them is only supporting a subset of the standard.

On a side note, M$N claims to have modems that are _guaranteed_ to work 
with any modem in the market. Applause or Flame'em?
