    I looked through the list archives and dug out the results of my modem
tests.

Here's my modem power consumption list (all measured on an MP2100 using
Avi's backdrop during dialing _ which is when maximum power draw occurs)

    Hayes Optima 336 300mA
    Motorola 14.4 150mA
    Motorola Montana 336 320mA
    Newton Fax Modem Card 50mA
    USR XJEM336 400+mA (this is about 5 times the power your
Newt uses with the backlight on. not recommended except for emergency
heating. I got total readings [newt + modem] in excess of 500mA while
testing this modem.)
    USR XJ4336 310mA
    Zoom 2975L V.90 280mA
