BV>> Yeah, the EPROM itself won't be expensive but the PLCC adapter will be.

BG>> Oh well, it was just a thought.  Still hinges upon whether or not the

BG>> Austel model will accept the US/Canada EPROM, but if it does, given that

BG>> the US has now restricted V.34+ technology to the US mainland (are they

BG>> fucking mad or what?),



The domestic model is called US/Canada and yet the restrictions have

included CANADA.

Canadians can't even get the new code that is MEANT for their

modems.



BG>> there could be a good local market for V.34+

BG>> Sportster upgrades...



 BV> Maybe. Depends on wether the punters know and all. Now, if you could

 BV> come up with a firmware upgrade for the V32.bis Sportster to allow

 BV> it to do V.34, that'd be a different story.
