[DuoList] duo 270c sub portable.

[britt at reactornet.net]

I really like the pure wow factor of using a Duo--It's a laptop (very
small), it can dock to a wide variety of docks, and then stick your Duo in
this big Zip Drive looking thing, it sucks it in and you now have a
desktop! It's pretty cool, but the keyboard is horrible. That and the lack
of PCMCIA slots is why mine doesnt get used much.
