ThinkPad TV Tuner and Processor Upgrade for 755C



Hi all,

I have been fairly quiet on this mailing list but I don't think this question  
has been asked before.  I am considering buying TV tuner for my 755C but the  
IBM ftp site seems to be devoid of any information about this device.  If  
anyone on this list has bought this accessory I'd like to hear their opinions.

In particular I'd like to know:

	- Is it compatable with both PAL and NTSC
	- Does it accept an external video input
	- Can it work alongside applications (ie can I watch tv and word 

	  process at the same time)
	- Can you run it at full screen

For your information I have been quoted a price of $573 canadian dollars from  
pacific blue. Is this a good price as I have not seen it advertised anywhere  
else.

Also I remember the processor upgrade for the 755C (DX2/50 to DX4/75) being  
discussed on this list before.  Pacific Blue have conifrmed that it is user  
installable and costs $1450 CAD.

Thank you all very much for your time.
