I downgraded because I sold the Boca 56K along with my MP130 :) Also, the
Boca doesn't have the XJack, and I found that it was just too handy to
live without. I don't often dial up with my Newton anyways. I have an
XJ3288 (the front is half orange and half white). I also used to use a
Dell branded modem of almost the same model, I think this was the XJA3288.
