Note that we could probably account for at least 10 of those "Telebit"
entries ourselves with our Usenet and email neighbors.  We are hardly 
connected to 1/6th of the Telebit-using Unix sites!

I suspect that most of the sites who have them don't publicize it.  Why
bother, unless you want to have unsolicited data calls?
