(San Jose, CA) is now shipping its tiny 14.4 Kbps fax/data "pocket" modem. This is both a V.32bis/V.42bis data modem (with MNP2-4 error correction and MNP5 data compression) and a V.17 Group III (with Class 1 and Class 2) send/receive fax modem. It comes with MaxTalk(TM) fax software for DOS, Delrina WinFax(TM) fax software for Windows(TM) snd Tradewind Software COMit(TM) data communications software - plus an AC adapter, a modular telephone cable and a velvet travel pouch - and a 5-year limited warranty. The Macronix MaxLite(TM)/PC portable modem is available now for $695 (all prices suggested US resale at participating resellers; inquiries invited). Its companion software lets MaxLite provide full send and receive functions in a true background mode. It can even perform automatic fax conversions of ASCII files, .PCL laser print-out files and TIFF or .PCX graphics files. Its delayed fax transmissions are a favored feature of weary travelers, since it can accomplish these unattended after other computer work that may require the modem for electronic mail or other on-line data sessions. Macronix recommends using its AC adapter for this, as the internal battery might not survive multiple lengthy overnight fax sessions. Macronix offers same-day technical support response to calls on its toll-free 800 line. MaxLite and other Macronix products are available through computer dealers and distributors, retail superstores and mail order dealers. MaxLite modems are a product of the Macronix Tele-Imaging Systems Group, which produces fax/modems and intelligent power accessories. Macronix also produces VLSI semiconductors for personal computers through the Macronix Components Group.
