New Actiontec Modem Combines USB With Call Waiting A Modem With Call Waiting? Paul Jones
I've long dreamed of a modem that would allow me to accept phone calls while I while away the hours surfing the Web, but until now the only solution was to get a second phone line or miss the calls. This might not seem like such a big deal to some people, but for a person who is online a good portion of the day (ahem... not that I know anyone like that), it can become a very real problem. But come August 15, 1999, this problem will be a thing of the past.
Actiontec Electronics, Inc. has come up with a modem with Call Waiting! What's this? A modem with Call Waiting? That's right! This new modem from Actiontec combines Call Waiting and USB connectivity to ensure that vital calls are not missed when users are online.
The 56K USB Call Waiting Modem will be available August 15, 1999 through Actiontec national distributors and retail outlets at an estimated street price of $129.95. The modem is backed by an aggressive five-year limited warranty and comes with free technical support. For more information about this incredible modem, read Actiontec's full press release.
