You can get them immediately (we have them in stock). Price is higher than those fine Taiwan modems. (abt. 4 times) TODAY: Bundespost has split into three 'individual' organizations. We will also have a new class of approvements for modems and other accessories. Just only declaring not beeing harming the telephone network. This will show up within the next months. So things change also here..
