Across the pond, prices will stretch from a $60 (£40) software upgrade for recent buyers of Sportster and Courier modems to $239 (£160) for an all-new external unit with voice capabilities. Buyers who acquired their USR units after November 25 get a free upgrade but not all devices wil be upgradable.

However, UK purchasers teased by months of 56Kbit hype for will have to twiddle their thumbs for a few weeks at least.
