You can try Computer Surplus (Accross the street from Techtronics) but they only had 1 when I was in there and it was an internal win-modem. Their stock changes constantly though so it may be worth looking there a few times a week and see what they get in everyday. I don't think those new external modems are worth $150 either but the fact of the matter is that people still need and use Fax/Data/Modems, expecially for Fax server kind of setups and remote access terminals, etc. They are still in high demand and companies like USRobotics are still improving the modem technology. So, to the consumer it means prices don't go down.
