Even better!  I now generally connect at 31200 to my ISP and most of
the time 28.8 to my local bbs (seems like I call that less and less).
I look forward to the new standard so that I can feel the Need for
Speed 56k +.  My local ISP uses K56 Flex and I connect at 31200 so I
can not wait for standardization.
