- Locally (Denmark, that is), we're almost done with digitalising the entire
- phone network, so it wouldn't be impossible to get >24k bps. It's not
- 28.8k, but it's a whole lot better than 14.4k.
-
- Somewhere out there, it's naturally not obtainable before mid 90's, I know,
- especially France and Italy has got VERY poor phone lines, but they're not
- alone...
-
- But, here in Denmark, we look forward to getting it. So does the germans,
- which has started (as we have) on the ISDN (sp?) phone lines. They will
- give you up to 64kbit/sec on upto 4 (four!) simultaneous lines. Now,
- that's something I look forward to get.
