The latest PC Magazine carries a 2-page Hayes
advertisement announcing the availability of its
V.fast modem with purported speeds with compression
up to 230.4 kbit/s
>From the advertisement:
And, its considerably faster and less
expensive than switched 56 Kbit/s
[i.e., ISDN].
And, it communicates easily with your
installed base of 14,400 and 9,600 bit/s
modems.
With a starting retail price of $579.
Does this establish a new access paradigm?
