Your rep was somewhat mis-informed. Ethernets have always been available
for the 3B15. The TCP/IP Wollongong release for SVR2.1 is currently in the
field, you may contact me directly if you do not get a response about
this. With the release of SVR3.1 there will be streams based TCP/IP for
the 15. I can't comment on the availability timeframe for that release.
