Er, I don't think the modem was invented in late
50's.
While U.S. Robotics did not invent the modem, they were one of the first
companies to sell them for home use. Here are some U.S. Robotics data sheets
that I got in February 1978.

I don't want to argue about who was first to sell a modem. I just think it
is neat that U.S. Robotics is still around and I have these data sheets
