I get asked by people all the time if I know of anyone selling a cheap 
modem.  Unfortunately, the used modem marked in this area is pretty dry.  
The best advice I could give your friend is to look in the paper.  Every 
once in a while someone will sell their 64 + equipment and may be willing 
to part with just a modem...However, they usually want to get rid of 
everything as a package.

New or referbished modem prices are dropping and if your friend has some 
spare money laying around (heh...yeah) they might want to shell out the 
$30 for a 1200 or $80 for a 2400.  I actually have people calling in with 
old 300 monsters who would be satisified with a 1200, but no one seems to 
be selling...I'm afraid all I have left is a couple of 300 bauders which 
are better than nothing, I guess.  I gave away my last 1200 almost a year 
ago...

Different areas may have more modems laying around, but here in the 313 
area, things are looking pretty bleak.  If you do find some modems, my 
users and I would really appreciate it if you could pass the info. along!
