ot: dec-express?

[Erik Heil]

Hi their.  I have a latter Dectalk Express unit and as part of its power
on procedures, it does indeed do a test to verify the  status of all
onboard components.  This does include a checksum test of its firmware.
I'm a bit confused as to what you're asking though.  have you gotten units
which are dead on arrival?
