I think it is great the new OR-U will have a POTS port, but it has not
cost me a single sale because it hasn't. I just sold those customers
P75's as that had the options they wanted (The POTS port). Did I like
this? No, and as livingston ISP reseller, I lost $750 in PM3 credits, as
each OR is about $75 in PM3 credit right now, but I still have a paying
customer on my network.

So explain to me how you have lost a sale because OR-U's have no POTS
port?
