Untrue.  SOHO deployments would make very good use of this card, but I am 
speccing out T100Ps and channel banks (and all the costs associated with this 
setup) because these cards are not stable (yet).  Being able to put a pair or 
even three TDM400Ps would be very beneficial to me, and I'm neither a hobby 
user nor unknowlegeable about the issues at hand.  (At least I don't think I 
am unknowlegeable, perhaps I am?)

I agree -- I must admit I added the IAXy to "pad out" my argument -- my main 
beef is with the TDM4XXP card/driver.
