Funny… the headline had me thinking “well, GeoPort wasn’t really a modem. Did Apple create a 1200 baud modem I’m forgetting about?”
Then it mentioned the 16e and I realized we were talking GSM modems.
There was definitely an Apple-branded modem for Apple II. Long before geoport. It had styling that would go well with the IIc or the IIgs
Edit: lots of modems, check the history section https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_USB_Modem
This article is clearly not news pfft
