No problem.  I have my 780's connected right now, and in fact am
watching the ./build.sh build go by.

I don't know about a web browser, since I don't use/have one on my
machine.

Which CF ethernet card do you have?  There's no 3.3V support at the
moment for the mobilpro.

: What do you use your Mobilepro for?

I use it mostly to write my magazine column, and to hack on NetBSD's
pccard stack from time to time.  In time, i'll likely get another one
and use it for a wireless "what's on TV" terminal that we can keep by
the TV like we keep the TV-guide.  The limitations of 640x240 is a
pita, but your 800x600 display won't be too limiting.  No worse than
my old VAIO.

It is just a pcmcia card.  I also have a ne-2000 based CF card (the
Xilinx one) as well as a bunch of other pccards that I use from time
to time.
