Why would you want to advertise that it has a TI chipset?  Isn't that the
chipset that has all the known bugs in it?  I'm returning the 33.6 modem I
just got because it has several bugs (due to its a TI chipset).  

I'll be buying a modem that has a Rockwell chipset instead. 

Also, I heard that USR uses the faulty TI chipset, yet generic modems are
often advertised as having a USR chipset.  If USR has makes it's own chips,
why are they using TI's?
