That Verizon gimmick.

 works via an internal "cell
phone" interface, which not just requires a (Windoze)
driver,

but also a Verizon account (and a long term
contract).
  

If you want cell phone internet connection then use a
USB SIM modem (I bought one from the UK) or one of the
new cell smart phones with WiFi interface.
  

That is cheaper and more universally usable.

  

And no, the SNAP drivers will only work in VESA mode
on the T60p.
And the speed improvement over a 2.28GHz T4x system is
minimal at best.

  

Heck, even the APM drivers don't work on that box.

The T60 is using a graphics chipset that isn't
        

supported by SNAP. I'd guess
    

that it would be slower than my old T21. With no
        

sound support, and slow
    

graphics,        

That would be plain VGA, wouldn't it?
      

Not always.  Depending on the chipset SDDGRADD or
GENGRADD might work. Jerry and I are working on a Dell c400, which uses
the Intel 830m chipset
which is not supported by SNAP.

The reason this laptop is interesting to this list
is that one of its jobs
is to be a wireless access point connecting to the
Verizon wireless
broadband network and serving up DHCP connections to
almost any wireless
capable box.  The list even includes a Treo or two. Not bad for a $250USD
laptop.
