This has been a major situation with us. The latency with the PM3 is
horrible, and any type of game playing is pretty useless.
Initial reports say the Lucent Modem Cards are better, but I haven't
received a strong word yet if they're as smooth as our PM2/USR Courier
setup. (Actually, we also run a Worldgroup BBS system, and *THAT* has
much lower latency than the PM3. Go figure.)
