I am looking to get a laptop to be used primarily for remote login
while travelling.  Desired features include:

   As small and light as possible
   Internal 2400 baud modem
   24x80 display if possible
   Good terminal emulation (e.g. can emulate vt100 or some other
     standard)
   Some kind of rudimentary text editing

I am willing to consider an oddball special-purpose machine (like the
"portable word processors" I've seen advertised, if it meets these
criteria.   Any recommendations?

Please reply to me if possible since I don't usually read this group.

Thank you in advance
