I would suggest Kermit, from columbia university, and most likely available
from your local Apple users group, or else buy a copy of proterm as it is
worth it! Another one that is interesting but not quite complete yet (Jawaid,
put some more time into this thing! I love not having to run P8 apps! :)
is TelCom, which is available on pindarus.cs.uiuc.edu.  I like it because
it is fast (from what I see it's faster than proterm, at least under the
orca shell, as I haven't yet been able to scratch up the money to buy GNO.)
and is fairly friendly.
