No. The point is, sometimes you have to move on to new gear. Personally,
I would love it if we could stick with the PM3s. It just seems that with
respect to modem performance, the Lucent gear *seems* to be behind the rest
of the pack, and continues to stay one step behind. Hopefully I will have
a better sense of it after evaluating the Cisco gear.
