Well I just called a bunch of "56k" manufacturers and most will not come
out with a version 1.0 for a few month. The only one I can find was the
Supra Express and that is in beta. I called hays and they had no idea of
when a version 1.0 will come out for any of their modes and the same goes
for the rest of the people you have on that http:link. MY customers ask me
what modem should they buy and I have no idea what to tell them, just Supra
I guess. I also cant find a single one that makes a PMCMCIA version 1.0
Kflex. Looks like it will be a LONG time before we will see most of the
56k flex modems support the livingston version, ALL of them support Ascend. :(
