Re: 56K modems - Please correct me if I wrong.

Ok, since you asked so nicely.

The standard was approved last week by the ITU, not a month ago.

It is K56 Flex, not 56K flex.

It is X2, not U2 (that's an Irish rock band).

The standard is neither K56 Flex nor X2 but a mixture of the two.

Other than that, you got, well, nothing right. But nice try!
