Not when they compromise other features, which they can often do if time is in
short supply for development. The release 33.6 ROMs for Supra seem (to me)
to be buggy, and theory has it they were rushed out for Christmas last
year. I use a much older beta and things work okay, although I have to
force 28.8 or less to connect to the Maestro 336 at my uplink Robert Rain
632/372. Likewise it has a terrible time trying to connect to the Dataplex
V.34 modems at uni -- I'd give it 30% success rate, compared to 99% for the
Spirit 336L.
