Well, I'm from Israel and here we have many people which lived in Russia
before, so I bought it from one of those guys.
It has English + Russian on the keyboard, (which is great because my wife
speaks Russian...) and I added Hebrew letters.
Regarding the battery, sorry, I don’t know where you can buy one.
Mine also gives up to 2 hours,
Meir.

Wow, how did you get your hands on the Asus?  I understood they were only
available in SE Asia and of course Japan.  They very rarely come up on ebay,
here in the US anyway.

BTW, do you know of a source for a replacement integrated battery for the
S200N?  Seems like the only option is to have them rebuilt.  Mine gives only
about 1.5 hours.

Hi Nick, Avi, Meir, Fran,  David and...,

Glad to hear from everyone, and it's good to know the list is still
healthy

David, I like your idea about converting the list to sub 3-lb notebooks,
because, well, I've got an admission...  I've mostly switched over to
using this:

http://www.i4u.com/article2213.html

Same machine Philip has, so there are 2 of us.  As much as I like the
Libretto
(mine's an L100/64MB/40GB with possibly every Toshiba accessory available),
the JVC (really an Asus S2Ne incognito) is sweet.  Very fast - even with
only
512MB RAM (maxes at 2GB with some adventurous disassembly and $).  As
portable
- maybe more so - than the Libretto, very nicely made, runs XP Pro with
complete
stability.  FYI, I also have a 10-screened Fujitsu B-series, and by
comparison the JVC seems the perfect size.  Plus built in wifi-G, network
and
modem, USB2 x 2, PCMCIA, gorgeous screen.

Though I could us the cash, I haven't been able to sell the Libretto.  It
runs W2K SP4 pretty nicely, and I've put so much time into it.  But
it's superfluous now

Anyway, glad to be receiving list email again.

  Ol' Libretto 110 is still chugging along after all of these years,
although the battery life is down to about 2:00-2:30 now (nice thing about
4+hr
batteries is that even after the chemistry has decayed after many years, 50%
of
4+ hours is still useable). Windows 2000 + Zonealarm 5.x free + Eset Nod32

Seamonkey makes it all decent although a touch slow nowadays for everything

  Given that Toshiba released the N100 (3lbs) but no Libretto replacements

Don't worry Lee, I hadn't even noticed ;-) but thanks anyway

I would support David's suggestion -- although I still have my lib it’s not
used a great deal. 

I used to travel a lot and it was great then, particularly when some git
sitting opposite would take up all the room on the narrow tables on trains
by opening up a massive laptop. The lib would slide nicely under it and I
could get on with my work.

These days I work from home so it doesn't get out much but I still can't
bear to part with it. Next project is probably puppy linux
