Telebit doesn't yet have any modems that support V.32bis.  The T2500
cannot support V.32bis - it just doesn't have the processor power for
either the faster modulation or the faster RS232 speed a V.32bis modem
should have.  Therefore a simple firmware swap isn't in the cards.

No announcement has been made about upgrades to V.32bis modems (because
none are available yet).
