Hi, I'm going to be going to Hong Kong for two months at the end of June, and I'll be staying for around a week in Japan before I return to Canada. Now, I have a friend in the States who wants an ff1100 type Libretto badly enough to let me sit on his money for two months before I go to Japan. My question is, does anybody here (I know you're out there somewhere...) know where I can a) find one in Japan and b) for cheap? This page (http://pokemon.ho.org/ff1100/) states that somebody bought it for 120,000 yen half a year ago, which would be around US$1100 according to today's exchange rates. What are my chances of finding it a) at all, b) at an affordable price, and c) preferably around the US$1000 mark or under? :) Also, what's with the pricing of the accessories? Extra batteries? The USB floppy drive? etc. etc. (And how well would the old PCMCIA floppy drive work? I'm relatively positive that Linux pcmcia-cs would make it work, but I'm not so sure about Windows. As far as I can tell, it would only work in Windows if there is no existing floppy drive controller on the system bus.) And we'll probably be staying in Tokyo. - Ed. -- Get your free email from http://www.kellychen.com powered by OutBlaze ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ -------UNSUBSCRIBE------- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe --------UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST------ Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **************************************************************
