If you use vj header compression and have a clean line, you can get the
modem to go into micro/long mode (I think that's right) and the latency goes
way down.  It doesn't turn the channel around in this mode.  I used to run
that way and it was fine for interactive use, if you didn't have anything
else going on at the same time.

But for general purpose ip use, you're usually better off with v.32bis.
PEP is for people stuck with obsolete, window-deprived software that the
modem knows how to spoof (uucp or kermit, for example).  Or for people stuck
with inferior phone lines.
