--------------
The Fax/Data Modem allows information exchange with other computers, and sends facsimile transmissions.

This low-power modem fits inside the PowerBook 100, 140, and 170, and can operate unattended for receiving files while you are away from the computer. Two versions are available: one for use in the U.S., Canada, and Japan, and one for use in Europe, Australia, and some South American countries. Dealer installation is required.
