Note the original questioner's domain: Berkeley.edu. This is in California, USA. Admittedly he *might* live in France and be visiting, but I doubt it.

Note that there are *no* European ISDN products with a significant market share in the USA; a handful are in process of being brought over, but it's not easy. Even though there are *no* regualtory requirements, homologation tests, or anything else required to sell an S/T interface device. Free markets are tough! -- Fred R.
