The Courier was designed and released before the 3Com buyout, IIRC. I
have one of those and it was great until lightening apparently got it.
By then 3Com had the company and the repair cost they wanted (exchange
program I guess) was _way_ to high. It's still sitting in a corner
awaiting a decision (umpteen years now).

I replaced it with a Multitech - having had good experience with their
previous products - and was quite pleased with it.
