Nah mate, I bought a power button and my old man attempted to soldier it on but he doesn't have a steady hand and there are 5 solder joints on it.

Tries some local phone and computer place but no one wanted 2 tough it.


I really miss that phone

Once I'm back in full time work and gotten a head a bit, I'll send it of somewhere 2 get repaired.

The other thing I was thinking of doing was just finding a second hand 1 on fleabay that has a cracked screen which will probable work out cheaper than getting it repaired

I am not close by but I could solder it for you as long as there is no damage to the solder pads on the circuit board. Will be away from home in Sydney for probably another 4 weeks but could do it after that if you wanted to post it.

Forget the pics,,,,, As some may know my other laptop is no more, and I wanted to retrieve all my pictures from it.
The USB port is RS so I brought a SD card. Ive reformatted it and retrieved all my pics which is great.
Question is can I just insert or remove the SD card at any time or do I need to log off or something like that.
Way too hi tech for me He He

just pull it out mate. so long as you are not sending or receiving any data on the drive, the chance for corruption will not be an issue.

Not sure if this is common knowledge But Ive noticed a lot of pictures are being posted sideways.
After a little test I found if I hold the phone upright the pic can be posted right way around.
If I hold the phone side ways the picture will be sideways when posted, might mean nothing
just saying.

Might add after taking a pic and cropping it I then bluetooth it over to the laptop.
