Apart from the Clarinet devices mentioned by others, you could also look
out for the Compex iRE201 "Infrared Wireless Network Access Point".
There's one on eBay right now.(I have no experience with any of these.)

I'm having trouble sourcing a replacement ac power adapter in
Auckland New Zealand.
I'll need it in a hurry too!
input: 110-240
output: 15v +/-10% 1.5A
plug: D4.8mm d1.7mm
I see that most laptop adapters are 19v and 3.5A min.
How far up in amperes could the netbook handle?
Thanks
Brian

Maybe add the battery connector cable for Psion S3 series, too?
The cable tends to break just at the connector to the main assembly,
and these are impossible to repair yourself.
I understand there's also an issue with the system buttons on these
machines, but as I've never experienced that...:-)
