- Since the Cardinal's FlashROM only affects the controller code of
- the modem, and not the code in the datapump, no. It will require a new
- datapump to do 33.6 v.34, and that's a fairly major upgrade (same as the
- upgrade from vFC to v.34, except that they will probably NOT be gettign
- the datapumps at a greatly reduced cost like they did in the vFC to v.34
- upgrade).
