Have a look at the number of camps doing X2 and the number of camps
going to do k56, the same thing will happen with k56/x2 as what happened
with V.Fast/V.Fc, look how had to bite the bullet and change (hint...it
wasn't the Rockwell camp with most of the modem manufacturers as
allies). Then USR was first with their custom version but after a while
Rockwell released the standard which was ratified as V34. What goes
around, comes around!!!!
