What I said was misunderstood.  I thought 1400/second in one direction,
100 in the reverse was clearly a description of simultaneous transmission,
something the trailblazer doesn't do at this time.

If I had meant turnaround, I would have said, 1400/second in one direction,
1400/second in the reverse, but not at the same time.

It should be possible to get a modem that is significantly greater than
960/second in one direction and SIMULTANEOUSLY something like 50 or 100
bytes/second in reverse.  (Clearly it must also be able to reverse.)

This would be superior to V.32 for almost every application I have ever
encountered.   The counter examples are far from common.

As long as V.32 is not the limit, it will not rule the world.
