Unfortunately, by the time the 56K game plan is figured out
xDSL will have taken off. I own Pairgain and there was an
article about US West not anticipating so much demand.

I think 56K is dead. Maybe Ascend should merge with Pairgain.

Cisco has not really hurt Ascend yet. Ascend was hurt by its CEO's miscalculation
of 56k modem technology. Mory said in public that 56k was a non-event. Because
of this strategic mistake, Ascend screwed up 56k game plan really bad. >>
