I have seen two enhancements to the standard T1000.  I think both were
advertised in Computer Shopper.  These are a backlit screen conversion
kit (which presumably voids any warranty), and a higher speed modem from
some third party source.

I am also interested in upgrades.  To be specific a larger RAM disk.  My
normal usage of the machine is to keep WordPerfect 4.2 and Procomm on the
RAM disk.  I would, however, be much happier with WordPerfect 5.0 and
Procomm Plus, for compatibility with my office system.  A 2MB RAMdisk
would be a big plus for me, particularly given the lack of a hard disk.
I notice that the new T1000SE is supposed to have an optional 2MB RAM
disk, though I have no idea whether it is compatible with the older
T1000.
