| 3 | BT sold their own branded ISDN Terminal Adapters for their 'BT Highway' (non EuroISDN compliant - unsure how!) or ISDN 2/2e service - this external serial TA is a rebranded AVM FRITZ!X, without the phone ports. According to "the archived site":https://web.archive.org/web/19990222013326/http://www.speedway.bt.com/speedta.html, they were sold for £99.99 incl. VAT as of October 1998. BT also sold an updated version with a USB port added, according to "the technical specifications on their site":https://web.archive.org/web/20010414030416/http://www.speedway.bt.com/index.htm |

| 15 | BT provided both a "2.06 update":https://web.archive.org/web/20010819095504/http://www.speedway.bt.com/downloads/spway206.exe, which introduced the software Speedway!phone (to place phone calls with the sound card) and a "3.01 update":https://web.archive.org/web/20040610213941/http://www.speedway.bt.com:80/downloads/spway301.exe. |

| 17 | The included driver include a CAPI interface for Windows, and can be used with "the standard AVM CAPI Port software":https://download.avm.de/archive/programs/capiport/ software as well as the BT-branded CAPI software - Currently, only the Windows 98 support has been tested, though the driver included is for Windows 95, 98, and NT 4.0. |

| 19 | TODO: Check the PCI Speedway card, since it has a "Ready for Windows XP" sticker on and presumably has newer drivers. |
