What is the slowest PII-based TP600e? Also, I assume it has a 3 year warranty
like the 770 (or what's left of one when I pick it up used)?
Also, someone mentioned the 600 seems a little flimsy compared to the 770. It this
like the flimsy on the 760ED? Since I use the keyboard a lot, I don't want a keyboard
to wear out in 3 months... Also, are the only options for the TP600 software DVD?
If performance is decent, I'll settle for it, especially if there's a cost difference.
And what is the weight difference for the 770 between 600e? Not that it makes a difference
to me - I'm still young, and used to carrying sometimes my 755C AND 701CS, with my portable printer.
