>>>Not for nothing, but I didn't need Rockwell to tell me that most
people don't care about V.90. They didn't really care about x2 or 56flex, because it really isn't much faster than 33.6.

This should tell the modem makers that analog modem speeds are not going to turn anyone on anymore<<<

That's what I've been saying all along. This hype over 56K is a load of crap. Who wants to upgrade to another step on the ladder that is just waiting to be obsolete. It's about time the consumers start wising up. I'm waiting for the first multi-Mbps solution to hit my area.

Are Rockwell's difficulties significantly negative for ASND? ASND merely uses their chips, after all. I would think Rockwell's problems are theirs alone.

Style Pts.
