Not good, as far as the ripoff and I would first look inside the Yahoo camp for that cheezeball. In reply to your correcting my asserting the flex win over x2 yesterday. What can I say...I forgot to eat my Wheaties. <g> The x2 and flex technology still must have drivers and be proven on the testbed with PCM(pulse code modulation)where there, T1/T3 carrier throughtput-10mb per sec. plus is proven as was the original intent for it some time ago. We scratch our heads daily here with Intel FX and VX and KX logic on buggy PCM motherboards run locally. BIOS updates with routine work-around fixes get us by or...we tap into the 10 meg pipe without the prior and off we go. I would love to be a fly on the wall at Bell Labs to witness, quite possibly the best at Information Technology R&D getting 56k ramped up for another presentation to the ITU by February. Best wishes.

Westell, Lucent In Marketing Pact AURORA, Ill. (Reuters) - Westell Technologies said it signed an agreement with Lucent Technologies to jointly market products enabling the high-speed transfer of information over traditional telephone lines. Under the agreement, Lucent will begin marketing Westell's SuperVision Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) systems, which will be available in first quarter of 1998. In addition, both companies will sell Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) products developed by Westell for Lucent's SLC Digital Loop Carrier Systems, or local telephone network systems. The combination systems are expected to be available in the fourth quarter of 1998. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. But Westell chief executive Rob Faw said the agreement was a "significant opportunity" for the company, giving it access to customers of one of the country's top loop carrier system providers as well as Lucent's established distribution channels and support capabilities. "Clearly this puts us in a stronger position to compete against companies like Alcatel," Faw said. Industry analysts have projected the DSL market at five to 10 million lines by the year 2000, Faw said.
