TD1232 is part way there with the T1 module...  With the CLEC offerings on
PRI facilities...
   === I've seen $160.00 per PRI ! ===

I hope Pana finishes it off by building on the T1 foundation they have, to
add the PRI support....

BTW, we have ILEC FLAT-RATE BRI's ! ...in a ILEC where everything is
measured.   Go figure....

You propagate some of the myths that dog ISDN.

ISDN *is not* always metered. Some ILEC's, under some plans,
meter it. Others do not. Remember we have ~100 different ILEC
tariffs in the US. (Say 2 per state..)

I use a "B" for ISP access. Each call costs me 8c. I tend to
leave them up for a while. (Yes, it IS possible to have a really
long call...)

It is 100% true that the ILEC have done all they could to squash
ISDN. This while they spend big money offering it. Left hand/Right
hand.

In some forms, such as PRI and BRI Centrex, ISDN is a major
success.  Here Inside the Beltway, Centrex is very important to
Darth's bottom line.

Now, I've no idea what the story is re: Panasonic's ISDN support.
I've heard it is very limited. (I'm SHOCKED, just SHOCKED!) If it
were done well:

        BRI: offer MSN {multiple subscriber number} support for the
        64 DN's a BRI can handle. BRI *stations* as well as trunks.

        PRI: multi-tenant on one PRI; looking at the called number
        and handling appropriately.


But does it? Not from what I've heard.
