Once upon a time Jon Lewis shaped the electrons to say...
>People with v.FC modems still cause us trouble, and all our modems do

That's another problem. V.FC is not universal, there are V.FC modems
that do not work with other brands doing V.FC. On top of that, you
also have V.FAST - which is different again.

>What about v.34+? It's amazing how many clients ask if we support v.34+.

The plan is to ship with V.34 (28.8) and do V.34bis (33.6) in a subsequent
release. We migfht be able to have 33.6 before FCS, but personally I'd
feel more comfortable with 28.8 for the first ship - push the envelope
after it is all working. IMHO that is better than trying to do
everything at once.
