I use a Boca Pocket 14.4 fax/modem which seems to work just fine with my
Zoomer. I bought it from CDW for about $170, but that was about a
year ago, so it might be cheaper now. It uses 4AA batteries and it
comes with 4 Nicads and an AC Adapter/recharger. I've used the same
unit extensively with my notebook and have never had a problem.
