Scrapps, actually I think that the "announced" date for shipping IS February. There IS a "nudge-nudge-wink-wink" here. We may get it sooner. USR has usually been conservative.

I think it's good. When I used to make buildings I ALWAYS fudged on the LONG side.

Better to say it will be built in 6 weeks and do it in 4 (happy customer); than to say you can do it in 4 weeks and do it in 4 weeks and ONE DAY (pissed customer)

Also did you know that "once upon a time" Robotics was toying with the idea of calling x2 "62.6k" technology since some users will be able to get 62kbps.

Management decided to call it 56k because that is what most users would expect to get (on a 56k capable connection).
