No go, if it is not *sold* by AT&T with AT&T logos, etc.
I am off the hook.  (Am I GLAD I added those conditions! :-)

A minor side issue, 
I did not say I was going to call around to verify claims of
AT&T products.  Please note (as stated in original posting)
that I will follow up "product announcements" *sent* to me.  
With the product announcement in my hands (photocopy will do),
I stand a chance of doing a good job of running down the
product manager and getting answers.  Obviously, 
"I think I know of...." does not cut it.

Final Note:  This is a Minix newsgroup, please e-mail me
if you want to follow-up.  I will give out my full address
to anyone with product announcements.  IF there are results,
even embarrasing ones, I will put it in comp.sys.ibm.pc. 
and try my hand at getting into the mod.sys.ibm.pc.

It is unfair to the Minix crowd to tie up their newsgroup.
