I wouldn't consider the Megahertz until feedback is received on their
upgraded units with a 16550 UART. This might solve the problems. These
were to be available on Dec. 13, according to Mike Mann of Megahertz
(800-527-8677). Perhaps upgrading could be an alternative to scrapping the
whole thing and buying an AT&T? The Xjack does seem to be a nice feature.
My AT&T KIT has not yet been delivered by Sparco. I expected it last week.
