For all you other L1/2/3 owners out there! Hi Steve, It's funny you ask...I have a friend who is Japanese, and she's been reading me the manual. It's not the manual; the manual and the keyboard coincide, but it's set up as a standard US keyboard. If you touch type, you're all set. If you don't get yourself a picture of it, and transpose the numbers and letters and symbols. The bright/dim keys DO NOT work in any way, the manual says they do, but they lie. The only way to brighten the screen is to PLUG IT IN. Very annoying. I know there's another way, just haven't figured it out. Must ask Toshiba. The way to come out of hibernation is to hit the on/off button and the space bar together. It hibernates the monitor but not the rest, after 5 minutes on batt. There is some funny business with the shift & letter keys (I haven't figured out which ones activate it) but when I type, I look up and the cursor has jumped to home. I have been getting lots of "we have recovered from a serious error" messages from Microsoft, but I ignore them. I AM a serious error. Will let you know if I come across any other jewels.

Although I am the owner of a couple of earlier Librettos (Libretti??), a friend of mine has an L3 and I am also contemplating getting one. My friend got his from Japan. We originally thought that it had come direct from Toshiba there, but learnt later that it was obviously from a retailer there - who fitted a US keyboard and US Win2k Pro. Everything that should be there is present in the package, including the Japanese manual - wherein lies the problem. I am trying to get hold of an English translation of the Japanese manual, and I wonder if you may possibly have one. If you do not have one, any assistance that you can render in describing the function of the additional keys on the keyboard that are marked only in Japanese (they are mostly grouped to the right of the spacebar as I recall) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time, and in advance for any assistance, Regards, Steve Baker Riyadh Saudi Arabia PS: Given a resolution to this issue, I shall post it to the list - I just wish to avoid any unnecessary 'clutter' in the first instance. ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
