I have successfully used the Sony PRD 150 (the one WITHOUT the sound box) on my TP750C. The standard PCMCIA card that comes with it suffices. The sound is so-so. And it's not the fastest thing in the world. But it works. One comparison statistics on speed: I loaded Borland C++ from a CD and it took about 65 minutes. On my (Pentium 100 MHz) desktop, using a 4X Toshiba CD-ROM, it took (if I remember correctly) just under 20 minutes -- maybe even less.
