To Kirk: I saw that piece earlier.It was a good announcement,the only thing is the cost.The software alone is 3000.00 thats a bunch.When you convert a max4000 what most isps have if their small or it was the only max available at the time of shipping is going to be costly at almost 750 per port for basically a dumb ip box that can pass voice to the net.Asend over the last year has not exactly impressed me very much although at one time their dialin max's were cost conparitave they have a lot of bugs and are very unmanageable.I feel sorry for the many isp's who bought into them as well as the investores who took a bath. Every body and their family are going to get into ITSP and the more the merrier as long as we maintain our market advantage.
