I thought V.42 and V.42bis only deals with error correction and
data compression, respectively.

Would somebody working at Telebit want to comment on the
possibility of receiving ROM upgrades that support V.42 and
V.42bis?  I would be really interested in an upgrade.  A natural
question would be will T2500s be V.42/V.42bis compatible or
compliant.  I read in an older issue of Data Communications that
the two are not equivalent.  Are the USRs compatible or
compliant?  Am I making any sense?

I agree here.
