Super Fast Super Serial Card!



I've come up with a hardware add-on board for the Apple Super Serial Card
that allows the SSC to operate at baud rates up to 153,600.

This of course means that you'll be able to talk to many high-speed
devices, such as the latest batch of low-cost modems.

I've successfully tested the prototype at 57,600 to a Practical
Peripherals 14.4k modem, and acheived throughput of 4850cps on a Zmodem
transfer using ProTERM v3.0.

Of course the speed at which the card will transmit or receive data is
dependent on the software drivers.

What I'm wondering is, if a market exists for this type of product.  I'm
looking at being able to sell it for around $30.00.

If you think that you'd like one of these, please send me e-mail to the
address listed below.

I need to get an idea how many of these things I could sell before I
invest the time and money to set up a business and shell out the up-front
costs to buy parts and pcboards.
