- Not too long ago, someone posted a group buy for Codex 326xFAST modems
- at $835 or better. Apparently, since there was not enough interest, the
- deal fell through. That person's company is now selling the modems for
- $885 or thereabouts, where do you get $1300-1500???
-
- Incidentally, Codex has stipulated that they will provide whatever
- upgrade is required (PROMs or otherwise) to meet the final CCITT spec
- for "V.FAST" when its available, so where's the point in waiting for the
- spec to be released if you can use the speed now?
-
- I'm just a satisfied V.FAST user...
