Tim--

My point is that I don't foresee massive amounts of my customers migrating
to 56k in the near future. At one POP, I have 72 External Sportsters
(which have worked flawlessly I have to say), and a PM3 with one PRI.

What I would like to do would be fully populate that one PRI with K56
ports, and get another PM3 chassis, and throw in the old modem cards to
support my 33.6 users, thereby eliminating some of that wiring nightmare
that now exists. If they <Livingston> are going to run over these things
with a steamroller, or throw them out, I can find many many better uses
:) Of course, the only way this becomes attractive to me is if I can
purchase the old cards for next to nothing.... :)

Thanks for listening,
Sam
