>>>I mean, if you're a consumer with any sort of savvy why would you buy a modem that will require upgrading when, if you wait a month or two, the dealers will have the "standard" firmware models on the shelf?<<<

Dee Jay I have a 56K USR Sportster internal modem which takes two-fivw minute to upgrade via an 800 number. It truely is a piece of cake, and I'd think this would hold true for most brands of 56K modems which are software upgradable.

With the easy install program and the Upgrade Wizard from USR I'm sure Joe 12 pak could do it.

I suspect we will see ads when the standards are settled telling us idiots what web site to visit OR what 800 number to call for an auto upgrade.
