And then again, you might up performance a bit by directing your browser cache to a
RAM disk and using a cardbus (32-bit) pc card modem. Still you might have done this
already... Other than that a fat modern HD really will make your 2400 behave in a new
way: fast, almost silent, and with a considerably lower power debt when on the road.
But thatt´s about it: comparing to the Pismo is a no-go just the same.
