Maybe their cable incorporates a sort of microcontroller (like ReMouse) to
create a mini rs232 port. Nevertheless, the software will have lots of
difficulties in drawing screens etc. at the same time while receiving data
from the modem. I think 14k4 bps is quite difficult to handle through the
joystick port.
But we'll see, maybe the Acrobat is a great production..
