Dave - I'll probably never get rid of my 2400 either. I think the Ti-G4 is still too much weight for me as well. I'd like a machine that matches the footprint of the 2400 in length and width, match the Ti-G4 in height, with G4 750 Mhz, 30G HD, Ti-G4 screen characteristics (except for overall size) and connectivity options, as well as a DVD-R that can also read/write CD-R/RW... I know, everyone here wants one too.... A small/light/multi-purpose charger option is available at www.chargesource.com Looks like it'll work with the G3s, which will charge a number of other portable macs as well. I've been using my 280c chargers since my 2400c charger went bad. > Good point, Bob. Rarely, if ever, though, am I using the machine off > grid.
