- I think your comments are well taken but are not real world for the
- primary
- market we address here in the U.S.A.. We currently do not sell our modems
- overseas. However, based upon a response to you mail from another party
- apparently there are limitations due to international circuits.
- Regarding the intuitive issues. Our processor will always decompress the
- data faster than competitive designs with slower processors. Whether this
- makes a difference at lower speeds is valid but who cares about the lower
- speeds. One thing is for sure if the competition sets the dte rate at
- 115,200
- they will do no higher, If they use a slower controller they will compress
- and decompress slower. Why do you think USR and Hayes put 32 bit
- processors on their top of the line models? However, this is overkill,
- the
- slower processor is underkill. We have tested the product and have
- achieved
- the performance as indicated previously. Yes, we tested with ITU
- specifications performed by a reliable source other than AMQUEST.
- The modem will provide exceptional higher performance under certain
- conditions while the competition will not.
- Also, why do you think a parallel is faster?
- Thanks.
