The U1 is still to big to fit any 15cm suite pocket. I don't worry about pockets. My pockets are already full of stuff like tools and there is no room for a computer. The Libretto (and the U1) fit nicely in a case the size of a dayplanner. I just carry it around in my hand or throw it into luggage. Its either that or a briefcase and briefcases are a pain. I basically replaced a HP 200LX with the Libretto. The 200LX fit in my pcket once I displaced enough stuff but its not very mobil. I couldn't run wireless modems and had a hard time with cellular modems. The libretto handles both. Plus the libretto can run a web browser that handles https. I can also run programming software that requires Windows and a 486 or better. It was nice when I could do all my programming with a terminal program (the 200LX worked for that) but then I ran into a situation where just the software itself required windows 95 and a 486 at least. I figure with a pentium mmx and Win98 I'm safe for years to come. With the Libretto in standby its almost like instant on so it comes close to a pda if I need to use it for that. Which is pretty rare- the day I can't remember a phone number or what's in a database is the day I might as well give it up. Would be great if I could find some 3000 mAh 3.6 V li-ion cells to rebuild the standard battery pack with though.

[LIB] Touch-Screen Libertto alternative from Fujitsu (P-1000 Lifebook)

Believe someone here was looking for a Libretto to be outfitted with a touch-screen. Why build when you can buy, right? d =) ...Now, if they can only put the touch-screen from the P-1000 on the P-2000, I'd be a happy instant buyer = adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

After my email to all contacts including the CEO of EZSCREEN, I received a inquiring email from sales. But after my suggestion of a different procedure and a touchscreen retrofit for a non-touchscreen Libretto they became quiet again. I suspect not enough business for them to get their a$$e$ out of the chairs. But I personally would go for a VAIO U1 with touch-screen because of the dimensions (I am still looking for a real mobile device to replace my Jornada 690). The U1 is still to big to fit any 15cm suite pocket. External tape measures (the maximum dimensions = 2x depth + 2x height): 1. Jornada HPC 25,4 cm fits 15 cm pockets and maybe 13 cm pockets 2. Lib 1100 32,4 cm could fit the 17 cm pocket of my winter coat :-) 3. Lib 100,110 33,4 cm difficult to fit 17 cm pockets 4. VAIO U1 33,9 cm very difficult to fit 17 cm pockets 5. P-1000 38,4 cm any 20 cm pockets out there? in an eVest maybe? 6. L1,L2,L3 39,2 cm 7. P-2000 43,6 cm But because of the weight, and the jornada is already strangling my neck, I am trying to find a belt holster. Standard weight (without hi cap batt or accessories) 1. Jornada HPC 530 g 2. VAIO U1 820 g 3. Lib 1100 950 g 4. Lib 100/110 980 g 5. P-1000 1000 g 6. L1,L2,L3 1100 g 7. P-2000 1270 g When using a belt holster, the depth is most important: 1. Jornada HPC 9,4 cm 2. Lib 1100 13,2 cm 3. Lib 100/110 13,2 cm 4. Vaio U1 13,9 cm 5. P-1000 15,7 cm 6. L1,L2,L3 16,7 cm 7. P-2000 17,8 cm Fujitsu, from my low point of view, is the only company, that consistently build touch-screen notebooks. I do not expect Sony or Toshiba to do that. :-( At the moment, I would be more than happy to get my recently purchased used L1100 from the customs on monday 8-) Bernhard Greetings from Germany ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.
