I have tried ebay U.S and have been trolling around the 'net for a few hours with no luck. Even if I could find one that doesn't work, as long as the screen is intact, I'd be willing to buy it. Thanks	Jim.D (4983)

Servicing of such devices was usually "by total device replacement", even when they were current. Palm PDA's were totally glued together in some series as a graphic demonstration that servicing of PDA's was never considered an economic option.	godfather (25)

I think it's a real shame that such a high tech piece of kit such as this should end up going in the bin. It's such a waste. Thanks again.	Jim.D (4983)
