Thanks, Clark. I was beginning to fear something the like. And the trouble is the GV dongle has proven impossible for me to get hold on (in Denmark), when I tried on behalf of a freind last year. Advertising on Mac lists, mailing to GV or faxing and snail posting their order form gave no reply.

Re: PB1400 USB options

2001-10-09 Thread Michael Dolberry
No, no, no. Sorry. Both USB and Firewire are 32-bit PC cards (Cardbus)and the 1400 is only equipped to handle 16-bit. I wish that there might be some workaround, but none has as of yet come to light. If I am wrong PLEASE let me know. I'd love to have these capabilities in mine as well. Mike

I've been told by an Apple rep at CompUSA that you can do both of these (and also wireless) via a PCMCIA card... Airport wireless with the 1400, yes. But that's the point - Airport is PCMCIA. 100bT, FW and USB are CardBus. The CompUSA rep doesn't know his/her onions (or Apples, evidently).

Caution on batteries

I'm a little behind on reading my digests, and someone may have already pointed this out, but I've seen posts in which some folks are talking about upgrading a NiCd battery pack to a NiMH battery pack or even a Lithium ion battery... NiCd to NiMH usually works, depending on the charger, but

I believe it is Farallon, but will check when next I use the little beast. If I understand you correctly, if it is CardBus, then it cannot be used on the PB1400, correct? I believe what I have is PCMCIA. Regards, Judy Perry On Tue, 9 Oct 2001, Clark Martin wrote: Do you have a 10/100

Strange Portable StyleWriter

I picked up a Portable StyleWriter today. It doesn't have an AC adapter, but it has a (prolly dead) battery. What do I need to know about one of these? Is it worth fixing up? Also, this one seems rather strange: it has a Centronics 36-pin PC parallel port, rather than a 8-pin Mac serial
