The AT&T terminals catalog in front of me does not refer to the
SSI/EIA board and specifically indicates that 2 RS-232-C ports
are included with the #3344-630 controller.  The 122-key keyboard
is shown as retailing at $150 now.   All told it still looks like
around $2500 retail from AT&T.

An alternative would be the 620 MTG which is rather cheaper and
has many of the same features and capabilities as the 630 MTG:

#3344-620 Model 620 MTG Controller	$ 800
#33401    98 Key keyboard		$ 140
#33450    Mouse                  	$ 165
#33411    14" Monitor (Green/Amber)  	$ 355
========================================
				TOTAL   $1460
The 620 is specifically mentioned as needing either the 5620 DMD 
software or xt software on the host system to support multiple sessions.
