They're OK for data only, but they suck royally for fax.

On a Sportster X2 that I bought about 4 months ago, even this didn't fix
the problem.  NOTHING would make that modem fax out more than one page.
Swapping out the Sportster for a Courier *immediately* fixed every problem
I was having with sendfax.  That being said, I run an ISP using external
sportsters for answering data only calls, and I've never had a problem with
one.
