 According to my experience it takes at least one month for new version
arrive at Laser5 or Plathome. 'Red Hat 4.2' took one month. 'S.u.S.E5.0'
took four months. Both 'Red Hat 5.0' and 'S.u.S.E.5.1' will appear at
the beginning of December. Let's see when these software will be
available in Kanto Area.

Even though you can't purchase the latest version in the world, you
can buy the latest versions in Japan at both shops. So pay a visit.

Take care.
