- I can get a V.fast modem today from Motorola Codex which is supposed to do
- 24.4Kbps on the public network, and 115Kbps on lease lines..(and they will
- upgrade it from free to the finalized V.fast standard one released)
-
-
- $1300 isn't a bad list price for the modem either, since the HST Dual Standard
- lists for about the same price(and is alot slower)
