I'm looking for a terminal with the following characteristics:

     1)  Support for two 80x24 RS232 sessions simultaneously (dual ports).
         The two sessions cannot overlap, and the user must be able to
         hotkey between them.

     2)  Screen saver--terminal MUST wake up when data arrives over ports.

     3)  Cursor-addressing, et al (as in a VT100).

These terminals are to be used for dispatching and must have reasonably large,
easy to read characters.  The terminals currently in use are 13" displays
(AT&T 615's), so the monitor needs to be at least that big.

If anyone knows of any manufacturer who makes such terminals, I would really
appreciate the information.
