Perhaps indirectly? X2 CAN DO 56Kbps transfers! *
note: that may be all they have advertised... doesn't claim anything about
directionality...then again, I'm noticing that mail-order catalogs seem to
be twisting this 56K technology a lot more than the manufacturers
themselves...
* though limited to 53Kbps by current( and actually a quite old and useful
anti-crosstalk) FCC regulation, and having ideal conditions: moon in
zenith, no solar flares, black cat walking under a ladder and such.... ;)
