|It looks as if USR has lowered prices CONSIDERABLY for their terminal
|services. We just got quoted a price for a USR Total Control model with 48
|modems + 2 pri for $14,352. This includes everything but a $250 fan.
|That is about $295 per port.
|
|Now, I paid $11,000 for my PM3. It's a nice box, includes 2 PRI, but I
|elected to only get 24 modems, but to upgrade to 48 modems it's going to
|cost me $5,691 for a total cost of about $16,700.
|
|At the time we purchased the PM3, the USR was about $560/port. I guess
|they are going all out to support x2. Is this the beginning of a price
|war?
USR is going for the balls. You can bet Ascend/cisco are in chaos
right now.
