Bitching about 3Com and support contracts aside, it's a bit annoying that nobody answered the original question about v.92... Of course until v.92 client modems actually appear on the market, it doesn't really make a damn bit of difference -- I don't see that *any* vendor is in any huge hurry at all to deploy it. Actually v.59 is what I'm really interested in, though I've yet to find *any* documentation on it anywhere, even on the ITU's site... Source Technology gave me the info on the Quad->DSP tradein program too. $50 per port credit. Trade in 12 Quads and get $2400, which doesn't even buy you one DSP much less the equivalent two. "A bit disappointing" would be my usual understated way of putting it... Makes me almost wish I'd traded in all my Quads (instead of just half of them) when I had the chance.

I'd have to disagree. Not that I have any higher opinion of the 3COM management...
3COM just started running a promotion for Quad->HiperDSP tradeins. If the pattern holds from past promotions (netserver->hiperarc), we'll soon see the end-of-life/support for quads.
My guess is v.44/92 will be available for HiperDSP's only, and then only with a service contract.
Everyone paid up on their support contracts?

Will 3COM release TC v92/v44 code? I'm convinced - no.
Check the archives regarding lack of response from 3COM management over the years. Speaks for it's self.
