A bit larger, a bit heavier, and a bit slower than you specify, but a whole 
lot cheaper (if you can still find one :-) ), is the Tandy 600.  The screen
(not back-lit) sports 16 80-character lines, the built-in modem is 300 baud
(only), there's a primitive version of Microsoft Works built in, and the
price of mine (new, left over from an abandoned layaway), was $100.- (!) .
