Great minds think alike Ray. I love my new T40, but my upgraded 600X is
still in the hangar for when it's needed.

VERY difficult to come by, but can often be had for relatively small amounts
of $$.

No, just a super-sized weekend to Bermuda, back home Tuesday night. The
island has always been a winter second home for us, especially from the days
of my yout' when I sailed in the Newport-Bermuda race as foredeck man on
"Running Tide".

I'm sitting in Atlanta awaiting my next flight, firmly ensconced in one of
the smoking lounges about 100 feet from the lounge that contains the WAP for
my T-Mobile service.

I'm only showing one bar on the connection, but I've been connected for 35
minutes now at 11Mbps without any drops while catching up on my mail.

The A/B/G card in my T40 is working great! I'll update all you mainland
bound peons when I get to my (WiFi equipped!) hotel.

Happy new year all,

James
