You shouldn't have any problems with hardware flow control over 
software flow control.

Historically there have been modems (USRs are some) which have not 
handled hardware flow control appropriately.  So I think that 
applications have tended towards software flow control due to this 
(trying to support the vast number of USR Sportsters out there).  
However, there are some modems out there that don't work right with 
software flow control and require hardware flow control (I think the 
Conexant soft modems are an example of this).
