(AT&T,
??? Who said anything about whether somebody connected at 16.8k or
19.2k? You were talking about USR (vs. Rockwell) and v.32terbo as if
they had done it. They didn't. AT&T did. The only contribution USR
made at all was to take AT&T's public domain v.32terbo and come out with
a proprietary extension to v.32terbo but still call it 'v.32terbo', as
if it was all theirs, or still the same old method that everybody else
was doing. And they publicized it as if they had created v.32terbo and
that everybody's v.32terbo was the same. They didn't. They just created
their own extension. And USRs version was not the same as those by any
other maker.
All USR did was to create an incompatible extension with the same name,
and to confuse the protocol naming situation.
