Hmmm ... I would say that even for home and small office use, an ISDN
card is preferable, since it costs much less than an ISDN-to-ethernet
router.

The Linux crowd has ISDN more or less working, or so I have heard.  Is
anyone looking at implementing ISDN card support for NetBSD, or
alternatively at porting the Linux ISDN support?

I will buy an ISDN card shortly, and it would help if I knew which one
to get for maximum performance with NetBSD 1.1.
