Thanks, but I just discovered some good auctions at ebay. There are
a lot of the 3com Ethernet/Modem 3CXM556 (that's the Mac-compatible
version) with the XJACK. That's what my 2400 used to have so all the
drivers are already there;-)
Looks like I'll get my new battery (I just meant a second battery)
from powerbookguy. Seems like it's worth investing in a new battery
which will last much longer (both in charge and length of service)
than any used one, right?
