After the Japanese adopted it, the E-DSS 1 protocol was renamed DSS 1 ; and currently DSS 1 becomes more and more popular in the US.

There are several of these ISDN adaptors available, at least in Germany; for example the Elink devices from EEH Datalink in Radevormwald; and a device from Elsa in Aachen. They have a serial interface and a Hayes-like command set. I'm pretty sure they work with BSD, though I haven't tried them out yet. They got good reviews in the computer magazine c't.
