Perhaps Bell should start a new service of digital phones (where what we
have now are analog or voice phones) that allow greater than 1200 baud at
comparable price. This would make better use of their 56Kb lines, and thus
make them happy, and give us higher baud, making us happy. The major
problem, of course, is the up-front investment to get this sort of thing
started for the general public. (Designing the system, deciding how to fit
it in with the voice system, advertising, etc. (Lauren??)).
