Yes.  I've been using it off and on for a month or so, and the 80 columns
is nice.  Apparently, compiled programs reside in bank 1, while bank 0 is
used either for the ram disk, or for free memory accessible from machine
language routines or using peeks and pokes.  The shell also lives in bank
0, so the entire bank 1 is used for the compiled program.  Compared to
C Power 64, programs can only be slightly larger, but you get 80 columns,
faster compiling, faster disk (1571), ram disk, definitely worth it.

The Commodore 1660 and 1670 modems come with one.  I don't know if you
can get it separately.
