We've been using Wyse 85's for a few months now. They run 19.2K vi
without a hitch (haven't installed emacs yet )-: Also, I'm not sure
about the status line, but you get LOTS of programmable PF keys, and
they run with VT100 and VT220 emulaton modes (we currently use VT100).

Probably the nicest thing about them was the price - under $800 Canadian!
