[DuoList] 2400c G3 and 2300c Duo Question

[britt at reactornet.net]

What's the point? Why not just get a 2400c then? The whole point to the
Duo is the Dock Connector, and without that the Duo isn't a Duo IMO.

As slow as it is and as often as I don't use it, it's still really cool,
and I'm hoping to find room for it at my new place.
