Although Motorola has not made a public announcement, they are currently 
allowing owners of the Power 28.8 to exchange their 28.8 for the new Premier 
33.6 modem.  They just started the exchange this week.  It will cost you $99 to 
exchange modems.  Basically, you call their Inside Sales Group in Huntsville, 
AL at 1-800-566-3266 and request to exchange your old Power 28.8 for the new 
Premier 33.6.  They will mail you a brand new 33.6 and you have to send your 
old Power 28.8 back within 10 working days.  If you don't get the Power back in 
time, they will charge you the full retail price for the Premier 33.6, which is 
$495.  Have your modem serial number and a credit card available when you call.

Motorola is now taking upgrade orders for the Power 28.8 to Premier 33.6
swap.   Call them at 800-566-3266 and punch up 4# for customer service.

They'll ship a new Premier to you for $99 + tax.  You return your Power
28.8 within 10 days after you get it, otherwise they charge you the full
retail price for the Premier.

You'll need your Power 28.8 serial number and a credit card.

BTW, the flash upgrade for the Power to 33.6 is a rumor.  The hardware
won't support 33.6.  The swap program is a better deal anyway, as the new
Premier has a flash data pump and more transmission feature options as
well!
