It seems to me that k56Flex is winning out over x2. K56flexT is a trademark of Lucent Technologies Inc. and Rockwell International Corp. This is what I was looking for in regards to your previous post. How does the Open 56K Forum standard compare to other standards like U.S. Robotics x2? The x2 protocol is not interoperable at 56 Kbps with the Open 56K Forum standard, which is based on K56flex. U.S. Robotics has been invited to join the Open 56K Group, but it has not yet decided to become a member. The Open 56K Forum will support any technology/protocol including x2 that can be part of an open, interoperable solution. At this time, however, x2 is a proprietary specification from U.S. Robotics.
