And it may very well have been a Panasonic that had been relabeled by IBM (like
certain brand washers being made with Kenmore panels). Now that you mention the
Panasonic, it was similar to the type I had a while back. Either way, it had IBM on
the front and a P/n on the back and it worked.
Now you have me going nuts as to who I sold or gave that to. I'd love to get a
Polaroid and post it for anyone interested.

There was a
discussion on here a while back about whether IBM had ever made
cassette decks to attach to that port, and IIRC, the outcome was
inconclusive. If such a thing existed, certainly there were never many of
them. In general, the favorite commodity cassette recorder for the purpose
was one of the long Panasonics with the carrying handle.
I believe it was Russ Blakeman (could be wrong) who said he had actually
seen an IBM data cassette recorder but didn't think anything of it. So as
rumor goes, they are believed to exist.
