Try the webpages of Sofmap and Twotop. Be careful with Twotop:
this is a "box mover" type shop. I already had trouble with
them. Bot they have good prices.

Another tip is to use the "Chuko" (used) section of Sofmap:
Libretto 30 is down at under 50 000 Yen (last price I saw in
January at Sofmap in Osaka).

I have a Libretto 30 (original JP version) for a year now (using
it right now) running Slackware 3.1 with a 2.0.29 kernel on it.
X runs OK. However, select the clgd7543 as chipset - NOT the
clgd7548 - the latter has some weirdness in it.

BTW, should you want to run dosemu on it, I can tell you how to
hack jp-106 keyboard support in - I already did that.

I brought two Libretto 70's for the guys at oberland.net along
and they run happily FreeBSD (with X) on them.

Hope that helps.
