Not completly true. The AP-EC (1 sync serial, 1 Ethernet, 1 async port for 
config and com port emulation) is list price $695. You need the software
for it too, which is $1000 list price. or the AP-EBC card which uses
2 ISA slots and has 1 sync serial and 1 ISDN BRI extra for a list of $1195
plus software again.
