  Kenny,

  I'd be intrested to know and occurres to me that battery life might be
improved if you were to modify a duplicate modem script to connect at 28.8
and choose the script to connect at the a lower speed depending on battery
charge or for downloading e-mail and higher speeds for web surfing or when
the power supply is available and convenient.

Whatdayathink?

I use the Megahertz PC 56K driver or the USR Sportster driver. Works like a
charm and this is really fast on the MP 2100. Now, I'll have to gauge how
fast it runs down my NiMH battery.

This X-jack is nifty, and it is LED lighted when it's online. Neat... but my
batteries....
