I was just wondering what the upgrade path for a Telebit T1000 was. Can it be upgraded at all? Is V.32 possible with an upgrade, or 19200? Or am I better off waiting for Telebit to offer some sort of trade-in deal, which I understand occasionally happens. Thanks in advance.....Lance -- Lance T.

Given that the T1000 is an intentionally emasculated Trailblazer, with features removed just to justify a lower sales price, I would expect too much in the way of upgrades. Unlike the newer Trailblazer boards, there is no place to add the V.32 sub-board, so unless they develop some new technology and decided to recycle the packaging, there's no hope of V.32. If you're only getting on modem (and can afford it) the T2500 is the best bet. We buy a fair number of T1000's only because they're significantly cheaper and we already have Trailblazers and T2500's for the few occasions where compression or V.32 is needed. -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing: domain: grr@cbmvax.commodore.com Commodore, Engineering Department phone: 215-431-9349 (only by moonlite)
