X2 server side modems started shipping on March 6th. This is when the X2
upgrade for the Total Control Enterprise hub was released.

The X2 upgrades for the Netserver ISDN and MP ISDN shipped on March 21st.

I've been answering X2 calls on my MP/8I since March 22nd. I've had an X2
capable Total Control rack here for over a month. It doesn't do X2 only
because I'm feeding it with POTS until I get my Ct1 lines.
