Actually Tandy 1100FD is the same thing as Panasonic CF-150B without
the backlighting.  They are all manufactured by Panasonic.  Their
difference are:  CF-150B uses lead acid battery instead of nicad
which has less problem with "memory" on the battery level.(correct
me if I am wrong, but I read this from PC-laptop magazine).  The
CF-150B has backlighting which Tandy doesn't have.  And you can
usually find CF-150B sell for under $600, good luck and happy
shopping
