I've got a 596 handheld unit that I was tempted to set up as a backup
for my node. But I can't find the proprietary ethernet module for it.
As is, unless I can cram one of those IDE to CF adapters in it, I have
to hook it to a parallel port ZIP drive to get decent storage.

It's the size of a paperback.
