They say it is possible under Win95 (since Win95 would install a generic
serial IR port for it) but Toshiba did not make the Win95
driver for Lib 100/110's Infra Red port (at least the last time I looked).
In fact I managed to the extent made my Lib110 to dual boot into Win95/Win98
just for this purpose but aborted it since I can't make Win95 detect
the IrDA port without the driver. FYI though ... I did not search/try
IrDa (Win95) drivers for other Toshiba notebook.

My thought exactly ... that's why I switched the phone :-)

Good luck.
