Don't know about that..

We recently received a folder containing AT&T's pitch for 3.1 for the
3b15.  We had already ordered everything in it from our rep, so it was
just a little late.  It says:

They also list "other AT&T 3B15 SVR 3.1.1 Product Enhancements", mostly
scsi stuff.  It then goes on to describe all the neat stuff 3.1.1 has..

P.S. AT&T is calling this promo "Investment Plus".
