Olivetti M22

I picked up an interesting laptop from circa 1986 today, the Olivetti M22.
I've never seen one before, it has a very low serial number, and the only
reference on the net appears to concern production delays and second
thoughts about producing the thing, mostly because it has a 5.25" floppy
drive and was scheduled to come out just after IBM intro'd their
Convertible with 3.5" floppies.

So, has anybody ever seen one of these things before? Unfortunately, it
appears to have been left in a shallow pool of liquid: there is a small
amount of rust on the back end, and the manual has become an unreadable
organic thing that looks like it might be able to breed.
