It's the law! Obviously it's based on the item's value. If it was
based on the declared value, everything would be imported as free

Heh. Not all? Try *most* :) I'm amazed at the number of jacks I see with
only two wires in 'em.
thats what hapens when standards get changes around
Shipping to Canada is *not* that expensive, and people literally *give away*
LocalTalk and PhoneNet stuff on Swaplist quite often. I suggest

Yeah, they screw the few good Canadians and let the terrorists pass through.

Yes, annoying, isn't it?
Microsoft has decided to change yet another standard
to how they want.

A value is assessed then the customs department levies
an import duty on it, unless the item was produced
in the country you're importing

Do you need LocalTalk cables or PhoneNet connectors? They're used
for the same purpose but they're not the same thing. PhoneNet
connectors are cheap
Yes, you can theoretically have a complete Mac AppleTalk (PhoneNet) network
using your regular telephone wiring, but there are certain GOTCHAs...
A Farallon engineer once told me that this was their original intent, to be
able to use your existing home telephone wiring with their PhoneNet
What a shame. I have some I was going to give you for free, but I don't want to
send them to some foreign country.

I'm more interested in a schematic then places to get them in a foreign

i have the schematic, if interested you can contact me off list. it's easy, and
polarity doesn't matter
as only transitions are sensed. you use the 2nd and 4th wires of a 4 wire jack on the
phone wire side.
there's a 50 ohm 1:1 transformer hooked to the phone wires, the other side goes

How many wires does PhoneNet use in the telephone cables?

So it should be possible to network at least two
Macs via PhoneNet through the wires in the walls,
provided you don't have a second line and do have
four wire phone cable in the walls and that the other
pair is connected to the jacks for the second line you
could have if you paid the telco for it.
well the subject carries the question, but I can't find localtalk connectors
so I need to know how to make a some.
