I have 64K B channels, both end-points being in the same CO (it's a
Centrex ISDN connection, actually). Sinec I don't need to go through
any trunk interconnect stuff, I get my full 64K. A friend at Cisco
actually goes through some 3 or 4 different exchanges to get to Cisco
from his house, and he now gets full 64K B channels as well, so I'd
say that PacBell is managing to upgrade their infrastructure anyway.
56K limitations will probably be a thing of the past pretty soon, I
think.
As to how I'm using those two 64K B channels, I'm bonding them
together and then speaking 115.2K async over the pipe. Where I'm
losing out is not communicating to the TAs at a full 128K/bps
syncronous, thus sacrificing the top end off 115.2 and paying for 2
extra bits in every byte.
