Wow Eric! That is an extremely strong argument. Now that you brought it up, it would make sense that the ITU goes with ROK.

Here's an interesting thought: Maybe Rockwell intentionally decided to make their first batch of 56k modems non-software upgradeable, so that they could argue the very same thing to the ITU?!?!? If we were dealing with someone like Microsoft, I'd put it at a definite YES. Is Rockwell that smart?
