Try here: http://www.silverace.com/libretto/librettocontent.html (no info on model) or http://repair4laptop.org/disassembly_toshiba.html (no mention of a LibU100, but perhaps it'll come...) or use www.webarchive.org or google/yahoo/mssearch cache to look in older toshiba web pages. Little traffic on this list these days :-( Good luck, Philip

FWIW,everyone, I've been thru several little devices in the past year; HTC Advantage, Kohjinsha SH6, Sony UX90S, OQO E2, and now settled in with a Fujitsu U810 that I really enjoy and hope to keep for awhile!!! Still could use a display for my ol' Libby 100, if anyone can part with one or knows where to get one reasonably ;-) Mark Silicone Valley Digerati -Original Message- >From: Philip Nienhuis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Feb 27, 2008 11:13 AM >To: Libretto >Subject: Re: [LIB] Back on the list, back on the Libby > > > > >Little traffic on this list these days :-( > >Good luck, > >Philip Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

I have a U100 that completed a few days ago 2 years in my hands .. I also wrote this not up-to-date page .. http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~jaatavaresf/Libretto_U100/ .. that everytime someone asks me about linux+libby, I remember to update .. I have lots of pictures and stuff related to it .. If you don't find the docs you're looking for, return the contact and I'll take a look here .. I bought 1GB a few days ago and I'm waiting for it to arrive from the US..

The U100 was displayed with a special clear case that let you see where all of the inner components were located. This would help with disassembly, although it'll still take some thinking to get at the HDD. I'll post the image from the site in the next post - I don't know if this will reach everyone, or get filtered by the list server. adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
