I thought this was expensive in UK: #48 +VAT or 55UKP.
Then I called IBM Japan Parts Center.
They had no problem finding FRU P/N 75H7522.
The guy spoke English to me and gave me the price in no time.
I asked him to repeat the price in three different ways,
to make sure I understood correctly.
Their price is 27700 yen, about 277 USD.
Plus they will have to charge me another 1000 yen for placing the order.
And they will deliver it in 30 days, maybe.
I decided to buy one for myself. No, not at this price.
I found it available at a shop in Tokyo.
I can deliver this for 50 USD each when I ship docks and FDDs.
Shipping within USA, and the part of shipping to USA and the custom duties
would be added to that price. Anybody interested please email to me.
Or maybe you can tell me the Radio Shack part number for an equivalent AC Adapter
that I could buy for less?
Missing from the photos is the part that plugs into the wall outlet.
The one I can buy has connectors looking like this:
o
I I
It may look differently in Norway.
This cable is only abut 10 inches long and could easily be replaced with
a country specific cable.
This can be used in Japan and North America with a two whole outlet
by first plugging it into a thin adapter that will bypass the third round connector.

There was no problem obtaining it in Norway a month or so ago. It works
fine, the only problem is that it is slightly underpowered compaired to
the original. Enough so that it will not carry the surge when external
keyboard, mouse and monitor are attached to the dock. At least this one
will not.
