Although I do use it as a portable terminal (ie. I carry it around with me) once in a while, I am finding that more and more I leave it in one place. As a result, I would like to connect the 100 to a monitor in that one location. Now, Radio Shack sells a video/disk interface, but it cost too much and I don't need/want the disk drive. Is there anybody that makes and sells a video interface by itself? Or, possibly, how hard would it be to interface the 100 to a monitor myself? A second question I have deals with the ORIG/ANS switch on the side of the 100. Is it possible to make the 100 auto-answer (ie. detect incoming calls and answer the phone itself)? I haven't figured out exactly what the ORIG/ANS switch does but I am told that the built-in modem is not capable of auto-answer. Please direct any answers either to myself, in which case I will post a summary if I get enough responses, or post the response in this newsgroup. Thanks in advance! -- Toto of Oz (woof-woof :-) {ihnp4|allegra|utzoo|utcrgv}!watmath!esfraga
