Just to let you know and probably help this community grow ...
A. I wrote an e-mail to below company in Germany that still has some IBM Internet Appliances left.
Below was their reply (for privacy reasons, I modified the mail a bit). I'm not interested, because I already got one and 10 I don´t need. Also, the price is a bit high (remember, these appliances are rare ...), but if people interested organize, they can probably buy together on a website.
Sehr geehrter ...,

B. I also wrote an e-mail to Royal Caribbean Cruises. Look for the following (old) URL's for the interesting stuff:

(a.o. they installed 500 (!) in crew cabins on one of their cruise ships (Radiance of the Seas), what has happened to these things, are they still being used?). However, no reply yet!
If you are in a hurry, slow down ...
