Seems like these are all but extinct, but does anyone know of a
'new' notebook that has a serial port built onto it? I've found some that
have port replicators, but that can be a pain when you need to serial into a
router or some other device. What do you guys use?

Buy a MAC Powerbook. I just purchased a 12" PB as a backup to my 15" TiBook
and for folks around the office to use for field use. With a USB serial
adaptor and Zterm (shareware terminal emulator) it works great.
