Jeff,
Personally, I have the 755CX with the MWave chip. Since I bought the Thinkpad
with the option installed, I cannot give advice on the procedure and whether or
not the installation is easy or difficult.
However, I can comment that the MWave chip is a great technology as it is
software upgradeable (14.4 -> 28.8 -> 33.6) and provides all the audio / comm
functionality that I need. The best part is that it doesn't use up a PC Card
slot.
My advice is that if you can still get one for a reasonable price, do it. My
comm connections are reliable and very stable.
Regards,
... patrick
