Sounds like a decent setup.  I had the 3945 actually connected using WEP over
the weekend but never got WPA set up right.  The only real issue I have with
the Toshibas is the screen.  Native resolution is 1200x800 on these and I have
yet to figure out how to get SNAP to recognize the thing.  It displays
correctly but the scan runs off the edges and you have to scroll to see it all.
I'll figure it out one of these days...
