Now if I heard Lucent correct at COMMNET, They said it will fall
back to Kflex speeds correct? 

My question is for any particular NAS, Is there enough room on the DSP's
for both codes?, Hell, When KFLEX first came out (ASCEND and ROCKWELL)
dropped support for V.Fast and V.FC (Which I know Lucent already doesn't
support)

Will Ascend have enough room on the DSP's for

V.PCM
KFLEX
V.FAST
V.FC

I'm guessing not, So, I'm guessing (yet again) that support
will be dropped for the older legacy protocols of V.Fast
and V.FC?

Correct Kevin?
