Steve,
    I looked in some InCider magazines dated '86 & '87
(couldn't remember where I stashed the older ones),
the only products from Prometeus that I can find are
modems.  I don't know too much about them, but I'd say
that's probably what you have. Probably 1200 baud or
2400 at most. I didn't see Versacard mentioned, but
I suspect by the name that it may have a clock and/
or other features, too. (The name implies that it is
a multi-funtion card).
    You'll have to make the call on rather it's worth
keeping.
        Hope this helps.  If I find out anything more
I'll e-mail you.
                    Paul
