In answer to your questions:

1)  Yes, you can transfer Multiplan SYLK files to another computer using the
Model 100's TELECOM program.  Of course, the computer on the other end must
also use some type of ASCII file transfer program.  There is information 
on transferring files in Appendix E of the Multiplan Reference Guide.  
The appendix also tells what programs you can use on other Tandy computers.

2)  The Multiplan ROM version was done specifically for Tandy Corporation, so
you'll probably only find it at licensed Radio Shack dealers.
