What a joke. Wrong class is right though. The TNT has been evolving for 3
years and the software is miles ahead of the Pm-4. But it doesn't matter
what I or Megazone say, please check it out for yourself. MZ will list the
best of the PM and the worst (usually out of date) of the TNT. So it isn't
valid. I'd be happy to list good things about the PM-4 if I knew of any.
But it isn't really out there yet.

Lucent bought Livingston because that's the best they could afford to
replace Paradyne.
