Lanny,

Yes build 44, which includes some hsp modem support
which might interest you, is shipping right now. The 3
CD set is the binary, source, and devtools.  More of a
developer type package.  The gamepak isn't finished
yet, but as soon as it meets our demanding ease-of-use
standards, we'll let the world know, and start
shipping.

If you want us to ship you CD's today, here's the
link:

http://www.redmondlinux.org/purchase.php

If you have anymore questions, don't hesitate to ask.


Thanks again,

Jason Spisak
