Matt,
The DAA is what you need with the internal modems. It should be the one
compatible with UK telecom standards. Actually the appearance of these
contraptions was due to Apple�s sales policies in Europe: They supplied the
very same internal modem with the notebooks sold e.g. in Italy, Great
Britain, Germany and had the adapter (mandatory for using the modem)
licensed by the respective national telecom companies (still state
monopolies in Germany and, I believe, in the UK at the time). Making the
modem itself comply to national standards would have enabled the user to
connect directly or via a simple mechanical adapter - but no such luck, you
had to buy the very expensive DAA...
Good luck with your ebay hunt
