You are aware that a good percentage of the T1's you purchase nowadays are
just a pair of bonded 768 dsl lines, right? The phone companies have been
doing that for over 20 years to save on copper.

Huh? 

Just for starters: HDLC circuits run on different voltages, have timing
and a bunch of other characteristics that xDSL never heard of. 
We are seeing BellSouth run 2 wire T1's, which have been working well so
far. Still not DSL (approx 900mhz over POTS). --Mike--
