PCMCIA created the PC Card. See PC Card. Type II modems are compatible with most current portable computers and cellular phones. The cellular modems allow mobile computer users to send and receive data and faxes via a cellular phone with the appropriate cellular phone connection. Each modem supports TX-CEL which is designed to significantly enhance cellular modem performance, connectivity and reliability regardless of error correction protocol used. TX-CEL is a patented cellular modem firmware A category of memory chips that hold their content without electrical power. Firmware includes flash, ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM technologies. When holding program instructions, firmware can be thought of as "hard software." See flash memory, ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM and FOTA. technology that improves cellular data and fax throughput, regardless of error correction protocol used. It enhances existing cellular error correction methods by eliminating numerous link layer transmission errors which significantly improves data and fax throughput and reliability by reducing the number of retransmissions. "TX-CEL's cost saving impact on cellular network connect time can be truly significant," said Steve Mills For the character in the "Shortland Street"" TV programme, see .
