I agree with your value comment except the Sony 12" laptop I have been
admiring has a price of $1,500.00 an has about the same ports and a
winmodem of some flavor. I still have $900.00 to spend and stay well.
Pls see my post listed after this one.

I tried this one with the very long delay knowledge.
connection made and communication with remote host works.
Just takes about 8 minutes from my keystroke, or series of keystrokes
to
have response echoed. Actually acts just like set carr off and set
line com3.
The pseudo com port is provided by the modem driver. In the modem
driver setup
I changed the port from com3 to com5 and now I can address the modem
as com5 as I addressed it as com3 before

I'm no HyperTerm expert but my WXP version lets me choose a com port
>from a list (the com3 port created by the modem driver) and create a
command connection to the modem which I can control just like a real
hardware modem on a real serial port. Same thing works in K95 with
set carr off except for the multi minute delay.

I don't consider a command connection with the modem a goal. I'm just
looking for a way to get rid of the long delay. Now it does not seem
to be related to
the form of connection to the modem. What I know now is that keyboard
to modem connection works as normal. Modem to Modem connection works
as normal.
Modem to Hyperterm screen works as normal. Modem to K95 screen works
with very very long delay. This is true if the software to modem
connection is made tapi or through the modem's pseudo com port with
either program. Hyperterm does not provide the function I need.
Getting K95 to work is the goal.
I suspect the easiest solution is to find a pcmcia modem that works,
but it may not be the most interesting.
