	Since having purchased my first 110baud Novatel modem, then
upgraded to 300. And buying a $1500 1200bps Multitech modem years and
years ago.  I see the need to stay ahead in the Communications industry. 
Why can't I download 6.0.3 with the only change being V.90 code, with a
new option to disable v.90 if it causes me trouble. I don't mind being on
the bleeding edge of technology. Sometimes it actually works. We've got
56K flex working on 5.0p6 with little or no trouble.

	I rub my lamp and see, my Salesperson getting me V.90 code in the
next couple of days, to test with atleast. Or him welding chains to my
Maxes to be resold as boat anchors.
