We downgraded all our units and are waiting for a comos revision before we
try implementing the 56k cards/3.7 comos again. I would like to add to this
thread that the pm3's running old cards and 3.5c6 is *ROCK SOLID* and we
are *very* happy with them. It is just that the implementation of the 56k
and/or 3.7 is not ready for prime time. I am patient and will wait till the
bugs to be ironed out before making any final judgements. Anyone know when
the new comos update will be out to fix the usr 33.6 and other dropping
connection problems? Livingston? It would be nice if LE would keep the list
informed with status reports, etc. instead of ignoring the obvious swelling
of discontent among PM owners.

Enough said,
