Hey, no need to do that! With the money I spent so far, I could have had
a 1400 or a 5300. But I really like the Duo form factor. That is a great
design, and it's unfortunate that Apple decided to abandon it. I'm not
too much familiar with the 2400, but since it is considered a Duo, I
guess it would be a nice one to have, albeit for a much higher price.
Thanks for your encouragements. They will help me wait until tomorrow,
where I will try to finally have this 2300 working!
-Laurent.
