hehe for those who don't know the 3A is AC power supply 110/220V, the 3D
is DC power supply 48V... the T version is the US standard T1/CT1/PRI 24
channels the E version is for E1 Euro version 30 channels...

The Lucent DSPs are coming out in June hopefully, and I believe are rated
at least to 56Kbps. The current modem cards are V.34+ ( 33.6K down, 31.2K
up)

Again 56K is scheduled, promised, destined for June...
