  Probably not... they may become more commonplace, but it's doubtful they'll 
oust a very established base.
  Even if they did, they STILL wouldn't consume that much bandwidth.  At best 
they send at 28.8K, and then only for a few seconds (the time it takes to 
send out a few messages).  The bandwidth problem will crop up when we're all 
using cable and ADSL modems, not when you stop playing Duke 3D on your 
Game.com long enough to send a message or two.
