No, the PM3 will not support BRI. BRI support for now is the PM-2i/2ei

units and the 5-BRI cards. We are looking at the possibility of doing
a

next-gen BRI unit, but nothing is solid at this time. Let us get the
PM-3

out and solid before we do another new box.

this is really too bad. BRI pricing is reasonable here in NY, but PRI
pricing is prohibitive, at 65$/Bchannel. If we could purchase boxes with
BRI and digital modems, we would definitely jump at the chance (as would
many others I would guess). I guess we will have to wait until cow's fly
(i.e. when NYNEX gets a clue).
