have you added a radar bug for this ???.
No, but I talked to Apple folks about that two years ago and there was
no enthusiasm. And because we already had a version for our devices we
ported that one...
I always thought it was a particularly useless & stupid feature for
several reasons. First of all, ISDN is uncommon and very expensive in
the US. To use it with a dialup connection you need two phone lines,
and in most cases two ISP accounts. Alternatives such as cable modem or
DSL are much more cost-effective, work much better, and are a lot
faster. Although they still aren't available in some areas, but that's
changing quickly. Plus wireless broadband is now becoming more widely
available.
Maybe a few years ago it might have been useful, but not any more.
