Ah, here's the thing too - I'm hearing the MacBook pro's run windows faster than any other intel core duo laptop out there! SO, I'm trying to figure out what it'll take to get one...
On the modem issue, you have two options. A USB modem in those cases, or, since they can now run windows, a better solution - the wireless cellular cards. I'm not sure they have them out for the newer laptop cards the MacBook Pro's use, but i know on my Treo 600, I can use it as a wireless modem right now through the USB interface. Jason
