Could be another TI " publish the spec sheet", if we get any/enough orders, we'll try to build a few?

Sounds so much like at&t's IVR system we love so well. Only takes 30 minutes to report a bad phone line and then all they have is a trouble ticket for 214-555-9999, absolutely no way to reach a live person to tell them "pair shows open tip at the demarc". But they will call back in four hours to confirm the problem ;-) Thanks Michael always fun...
