BT is a fully integrated remote access system that allows functions and features over a single dial-tone POTS line that can't even be done over multiple phone lines.
You know damn well there is no other product which integrates fully simultaneous Voice/PBX/Fax/Data and operates in a true client-server environment. To top things off the client end equipment comes as a single ISA or PCMCIA Type-II card.

Yes, I understand the ISDN version has been in the field as beta for a while now and it's totally unique in its makeup. Having access to the extra bandwidth allows room for additional features and I believe they've been collecting feedback as to which of the features would be the most popular.

ISDN BT is also a totally unique technology in that it takes the entire ISDN bandwidth and multiplexes it - everyone else just splits the channels. Bringing up the voice channel on ISDN BT only takes 16K of the 112K/128K ISDN connection leaving 96K/112K for the data - quite an improvement over "the others" whose channel-splitting operation only leaves 56K/64K.

Industry shifting to xDSL ?? Don't make me laugh Jonathan as lately it's looking like we won't even come close to that "10% by 2001" prediction previously made by analysts. Even if we do see 10% penetration three years from now that leaves 90% of the remote world as POTS.

Now as to your blathering attempts to discredit me because of my "track record":

Jonathan - need I refresh your memory that I only had call options in DIMD?
I thought I made that clear in 1996 when I had them and that implies short term.

Need I also refresh your memory that I was pretty well out of SIII at $17?
The whole time you were trashing it a lot of people made a lot of money
as the company continued scoring OEM contract after OEM contract.

Track record? I don't think that enters into anything at all here,
I'm very long on Data Race due to the actual technology involved.
I'm so firmly convinced I fight to buy and hold every share I can.

Oh well - a few I remember over the years:

ASMIF - $5 1/8 to $45
LNOPF - $14 - $20
VTSS - $12 to $25
SIII - $12 to to $17
TRID - $10 - $34
BNET - $42 - $68
AMD - $24 - $36

Of course a few I wish I had never played:

GGNS - $10 to $6
QDEK - $34 to $24
TRID - $16 to $12

What's your record John?
Two years of trashing DIMD which has gone up & down the whole time.

You'll notice I'm not counting RACE in either yet.
