  Oops, shoulda written it down myself. I just ordered one, this guy 
(nice fellow, x0456 at 1-800-IBM-2YOU) knew it off the top of his head - 
worldwide adaptor for Thinkpad 700 series is what I asked for - and he 
didn't know anyting about a warehouse being closed, and didn't seem 
totally clueless. It was $66 and change with shipping. Hope my employer 
will reimburse me.....
