Like the Subject line says, I'll be going to Japan next week and will be in Tokyo for a week on business. I'm sure I'll have some time to get down to Akihabara and will check out the "junk" stores where there are tons of ThinkPad goodies. Does anyone have any suggestions on things I should get...look for...any orders?

Multiburners!

I've heard tell of "old" as well as "new" T series compatible bare 4X DVD+/-RW burners available for $75 for the Ultrabay 2000 size and $100 for the Ultrabay Slim size.

Fill up a suitcase and you could pay for the trip.

Regards,

James

A couple of ThinkPads S30/31. You can easily hide in your pocket. :wink:

If you take requests, I've been curious about the Asia-only Bluetooth Sony Memory Stick for its Clie PDAs -- never sold in the US and only rarely available on Ebay. And if there are Bluetooth toys for my T-series Thinkpads, that's also good. . .

E-mail me at dwallace@att.net if you want more details or an order deposit

I've PMed or emailed a couple of you. I would be interested in the small size ThinkPads (that fit in your pocket?) but afraid I don't have the budget for them.
