I like the AT&T because it has updatable firmware and an optical line
interface, which is claimed to improve transmission over poor lines. I
occasionally need to send faxes overseas to places like Madagascar and
Russia where this feature could help, and the modem has worked
beautifully so far. While the Xjack is certainly nice, with it connected, I
don't think you can connect a second PCMCIA card. Also, can you use the
standard 750 PCMCIA port cover with the Xjack?
