I have one USR56K in mind right now. The only reason why I'd want
something fast enough anyways is so we can upload webcam images. I
realize that this can be done with modems, but they don't always prove to
be the most stable thing.

When we get the booth layout, lets see if we can find out which ISP or
company is nearest to us. If its Cisco, we're set ;), and perhaps we can
send them a "media pack" about Linux and state what we'd be planning to do
with our connection, and if need be, we can use a traffic shaper to cut
our traffic, etc, etc.
