I think I heard the same thing you did, Linda and I was totally awed at the beauty of Ann Sullivan's voice. Talk about a saint, Ann Sullivan was one. I think Richard Kinney had heard for a surprisingly long time that is why his speach was so clear, Maybe I am wrong I'll ask my sister because she was a very close friend of his. Ok I'm going to bring us back on topic by asking: Do any of you have the situation where your bn or vn gets really hung up when downloading e-mail. You will have a bunch of mail come in lickety-split and then one message will take about 2 or 3 minutes then a bunch more comes in lickety-split and another comes in and hangs the system up for about 3 or 4minutes? I tell you, mine does this all the time and its gettin rather old at this point. Mary ellen Earls P. S. Oh are those pcmcia modems any faster than the 56 K modems which ship with the bn? Thanks
