Not necessarily. You can either plug in a Newton AC adapter or power it
with two AA size batteries. I haven't ever seen such a modem that didn't
work. If I were you, I'd try with the AC adapter and, if it works, check
the batteries.

>Also, what are the specs on this bad boy? Can someone enlighten me?

Sure. That's what we're here for ;-)

>14.4 perhaps? :^)

Nope. 9600 Baud Fax, 2400 Baud anything else.
