what did you find to be appealing about the fiva? i'd have to get that 
thru dynamism because it's not imported to america, correct?

and, are you expecting it to replace your netbsd-hpc nec mobilepro 780?

( note for other users, this is a carryover from a different list that 
both warner and i are on, this is nifty little WinCE device that has 
netbsd running on it. )

and since you own one, it's much easier for you to fix it!

this is good to hear.

tho the mail that i got back from other folks seems to indicate that i can 
continue using my hp800ct as long as i ride on airlines that provide 
power. I seem to have taken the wrong airline on my last trip ( 
continental)
