Can't you send the thinkpad on one of the military transports to the US?
Turnaround time on easyserv repairs in the US is usually 48 hrs or less

I think your message must be the most long distance email that we've
gotten so far on the thinkpad mailing list. Maybe next we'll get an email
from a shuttle astronaut.
