\Megahertz support was good... when I got through to them. Back in the 
\days of their 800 number, I waited on hold for _20_ minutes before I 
\got a person (who promptly sent me a new modem, admittedly). Now they 
\have toll calls. I'm sure it's no better.

Just purchased the Megahertz XJ-3288M cellular modem.  Seems to work very
well on the 701C.  Still not sure about the sleep mode and how it's affected
by Suspend mode.  Seems to work find but I did find the battery almost dead
one day after Suspend for 20 hours.
The Cellular cable into your cellular phone works great.  Using Trumpet 2.1f
and connecting the cellular cord, causes the cellular phone to turn on,
Trumpet feeds it the number and then it hits send without intervention and
without reprogramming trumpet.  First time out, I got a 9600 baud send and a
7200 baud receive.  Works very well.  3.5 ***'s.
