No, and especially not if the Class 2 firmware does not support any 
features beyond HylaFAX's Class 1.

True, very true.  Sending in Class 1 or Class 2 should not make a 
difference provided there are no bugs and the feature-sets are the same.

And, most modems out there don't.  Only MultiTechs newer models do, and 
it would be wise for new buyers to select these for that reason, but 
for the sake of supporting most modems out there which don't have Class 
2 features beyond HylaFAX's Class 1, it is good advise to say "use 
Class 1 if Class 2 has problems".
