No need to be condescending. Presumably you subscribed for a reason and the only reason it is now annoying to you is that you are no longer interested.

I was able to acquire a few sheets of the AR films as samples, but I have yet to get them to sell me more sheets at an affordable price. They're asking ~$70 per full sheet (4 letter sized pages on one sheet), with a minimum order of $1000! (You can cut 3 L100/110 screen sizes out of a letter page, so that's 3 * 4 = 12 screens per full page. $1000/$70 * 12 = 171 L100/L110 users) I'll be working on this to see if I can combine orders or squeeze them for a low quantity order. --- At this time, unless there's 171 lurkers on this list that will buy these AR films, we're looking at about 5 letter sized AR film sheets, or about 15 pieces of L100/L110 screen AR films to distribute to everyone interested on this list. I'll inspect each sheet as I cut them to rough size to see if they're worth sending - so actual number of good films may be lower. I'll limit it to one screen piece per person who requests a sheet, and I'll charge $2 per sheet to cover shipping and packaging. They'll be roughly cut to L100/L110 size, but larger so you can cut them to fit your screen exactly when you receive them (ie. you can cut it to fit the L20-L1100 screen size depending on what Libretto you have). This keeps the costs low (I don't have to measure and cut), and you can fit it to any Libretto models 20-1100 (I won't have to worry about not having enough pieces of one screen size or another). --- Keep in mind that this is a non-supported, non-approved 3rd party modification of the Libretto LCD screen that will void your warranty! (In other words, if something goes worng, or the screen breaks, nobody will pay for the damage!) No warranties are provided! This is a modification that has no guarentees! Okay, that aside, you can search the Libretto Mailing List archives for past articles on how the film looks, how it improves screen contrast, how it is applied, etc. Over here, on my L110, it went on smoothly - simply clean screen, peel, press, and rub to ge the bubbles out - voila! My L110 screen looks much better. Others who have done this upgrade agree - see List Archive posts. Because the pressure sensitive adhesive is permanent after application, you won't be able to remove the film after it's been applied. Thus, if you don't want a permanent modification, don't order! Also, because you have to press on the film and LCD screen beneath to apply the film, there is the danger and chance you'll break the LCD screen. Again, if you don't want to take this risk, don't order! Finally, if any dust, particles, bubbles, or what not are under the film during application, and you don't remove these right away, they'll be permanently trapped underneath the film. If you can't clean the screen, or don't want to deal with getting rid of film bubbles, don't bother! (for me, as long as you press and peel as you go from one screen edge to another on a clean screen, it went on just fine) Once you receive the screen sheet, you can always snip off a thin edge piece and apply just that temporarily to test and see the difference before applying the entire sheet. -=--- That said, amazing product which I'd apply to any Libretto I buy again, and I've got no regrets about the performance or the beauty of the screen with the AR film. Those willing to risk breaking their Libretto LCDs, and ready to buy, send an email to me! (Please, no payment yet. I'll take orders first-come, first-serve. Payment by PayPal prefered later, but other forms of payment ok.) Yes, international orders accepted as well (here, PayPal prefered but we can work in other payments). One per person at this time.

Can you still get GPRS over CDMA? GPRS is a GSM-specific protocol for "high speed data". It gives you approximately 56kbps max data rate. The CDMA equivalent is called CDMA 2000 1xRTT (that's a mouthful) and gives you max data rate of 144kbps. This is available today throughout the Sprint PCS network and through most of Verizon's network. The next generation for CDMA is called CDMA 2000 1xEV-DO with which Verizon is starting a public trial in Washington, D.C. and San Diego in the 3rd quarter of 03. 1xEV-DO offers peak data rates of 2.4Mbps. --Jim Dempsey-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jjd.com/ ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

I thought I would tell people about the really easy time I had just installing Debian linux on my libretto. My disk was already partitioned with FAT, Linux swap and linux fs from a previous install. I copied a few megabytes of pre-installation files to my FAT partition as described the Debian installation guide. Then, boot from a DOS floppy and execute loadlin.exe from the FAT partition. When the debian installer comes up, you can specify that you want to install from http and the entire rest of the installation is done over the net from debian.org. Very easy. I had been putting off upgrading my linux installation (from RH 6.1) but this was so easy, I should have done it earlier. --Jim Dempsey-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jjd.com/ ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

[LIB] Lib 50 won't recognize a new 4.3G hard drive
Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2001 20:37:23 -0500 From: "James S.

When I use the Win95 Setup Boot Disk (and press F12), it starts to set up Windows, but then says "Setup cannot install Win95 on your computer. Your computer does not have a hard disk..." Exiting gets me to an A> prompt, but I cannot get to a C> prompt or attempt to format the C drive ("Invalid drive specification"). I can get to the System Setup (BIOS Version 6.60) by pressing F1 after booting without the FDD, but it shows "No Drive" under Hard Disk and will not permit a change.

CF cards are less than half of the size of PCMCIA. Your camera has a CF Type II slot and your Libretto has a PCMCIA slot. Some, but not all Microdrive bundles come with a little caddy that the CF-sized microdrive fits into to make it fit into the PCMCIA slot of the Libretto and other laptops.

If you buy the right bundle, the microdrive comes with a PCMCIA->CF adapter so that it works in your Libretto. I have taken my 512MB microdrive out of my camera and put it in my Libretto and it works just fine. Beware, though, that not all CF-equipped cameras can use the Microdrive. First, the microdrive is CF+ Type II (whatever that means) and can't physically fit in CF type I slots. Secondly, even some cameras that have Type II slots don't work with the Microdrive.

I myself have >recently purchased a second-hand Lib 110 CT. This is a very interesting little question Faisal I use my Librettos, they are two 50ct one was bought new and the other second hand on the Net. I have some question about one or two things which i would like help with but i will ask these later. I use my little Librettos in a way that many of you reading this group will never, do I hope. I use the Libretto to communicate with people when I do workshops. I am a deafblind person totally blind and deaf, And have a braille Display on my Libretto so that i am able to use it, the braille Display is added on to the Printer port. and with software that runs the Braille display i am quite able to use the Libretto just like all of you. just maybe a little slower but that all. The Libretto is a great little computer for communication with others, it small enough to take with one anywhere and with my Braille Lite Display it just a little moment to have them up and running. One person can type on to the Libretto keyboard and i can read what they are trying to say to me on my Braille display. when they have ended there thoughts I can reply and they can read this on the Libretto screen. So like many of you i really think that the little Toshiba libretto is a great little computer in every way. One day i will pick up a 110ct second hand but at moment i very happy with the ones that I have. I did try and buy a 110ct but the person was asking to much for it. Well I have said my little bit and it time for me to go again in to the background of the group again. I have learned a good little bit of information on this group, Yes much much of it goes right over my little head but it worth reading.
