Except for the introduction of the AT command set itself, Hayes has 
rarely been "first" with anything.  Also rarely last, except to the
extent that EVERYBODY is last at least temporarily, until somebody
else takes over being last.  We prefer to try to be "best" rather
than "first". 

Believe me, there is not a higher priority project at Hayes right 
now than V.32bis.  We're just waiting to announce the details.
