Stan,
you can get the software and most likely the dongle too.
1. Here is the GV software I have on several emergency locations. Let me know
if you can�t find it.
GV PC Card Installer Disk 1 1214K
GV PC Card Installer Disk 2 1255K
GV PC Card Installer Disk 3 663K
GV PC Card ROM Update 2 1083K
GV PC Card ROM Update 3 V90 1742K
GV PC Card Update 3.0.4 626K
Modem slowdowns 18K (a textfile from MacFixit ?)
TP_56_K56flex_Scripts.sea 108K
Now, not all of that < may > be necessary, but do I want to find out in a bad
moment ? No.
2. I ordered extra dongles last February for $14 or so; at least then one
could still find those.
3. Nothing astonishes me anymore... GV told me I couldn't use the Windows
card but had to buy the Mac card. Funny, my 2400 can't tell the difference,
but my wallet certainly could.
