Wish I could do that. My 1400, which is a 133, can't do _anything_ while
playing an MP3, which drives me nuts. Even checking my email causes the
player to skip.

I agree on that front -- the keyboard is as good as any I've ever used.
I've never used a 2400, so I can't comment on that front.

I bought my 1400 used, didn't come with the clear BookCover. I heard once a
rumor about a solar-panel book cover which adds about 20% to your battery
life (!), but my investigation to track one down has lead nowhere.

I've heard about that -- but is it really major concern? Does it happen to
a lot of 2400s?
