modem recommendation

Hello,

A while ago I posted several questions about a project I was 
considering using mgetty+sendfax (with vgetty) for. The feedback I 
received was excellent and convinced me that vgetty will be able to 
solve my problem.

At this point I hope for some similar high-quality feedback regarding 
hardware. Can any of you that are experienced with vgetty recommend 
a modem brand? I have read that there are some reported problems 
with US Robotics modems-- is this correct? I would prefer to buy an 
internal modem (for cost savings and reduced clutter), but if there 
have been bad experiences with internals, I will get an external. 
Put another way, I want to buy the least expensive modem I can that I 
know will work with vgetty without a problem. At the same time, I 
know buying an expensive modem doesn't mean I won't have problems. 
I'm preparing to implement a relatively sophisticated voice mail 
system and would like as little time as possible devoted to hardware 
problems.

Thanks much for any help!

 -john.
