Looks like we are safe for now (the short term) until they integrate it in their computer some day. Maybe by then Westell may come out with their own version of a PCI based PC ADSL modem. As I recall a few years ago reading some PR news of them working on one. Seems they were ahead of their time and just put it aside. Maybe they were waiting for a chip like TI's DSP with high integration.

Great FULL PAGE COLORED AD in Today's NY Times on getting Infospeed. Still limited availability for New York and New Jersey, but this is the biggest ad I've seen so far, and it is on the end of the business section of the paper.

Modem for only $99.

Clearly a ramp-up in advertising,
