For those thinking about a laptop ... if you're willing to put up with
trailing edge technology, I've seen the T1000 advertised in the
NYTimes (check out the Tuesday issue; esp. the Science section) for
$459.  You'll still need the 768Kb memory board (still around $250 or
so).

Anyone have any experience with the MHZ 2400 bps modem for the T1000?
Can it be completely powered off when not in use?
