You will be pleased to hear that the 33.6k version is back, its been there
since September if my memory is correct.

X2 56k can work over here and one day probably will.  There will NEVER be
a 64k variant as far as I can tell because it is not possible.  Remember,
the yanks have 64k ISDN as well as 56k ISDN.

 DH> Then again, it may simply be sales hype.

Of course, you could be right...
