The 5300 has IRTalk but not IrDA. This means it can communicate with other IRTalk equipped Macs but nothing else really. While later Macs have both IrDA and IRTalk they can only do one or the other at a time. Basically IRTalk can be used as an invisible LocalTalk with really short cables. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
