You can order them from www.elfa.se (stock # 42-710-11), but the shipment is very expensive. http://www1.elfa.se/elfa~eu_en/go.jsp?s=eu-en&a=0/4778F92F724F5297E10000000A0A036A/4778373A724F5297E10000000A0A036A/47783DB1724F5297E10000000A0A036A/47783E27724F5297E10000000A0A036A _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
