Nate the great 11-11-2007, 09:05 AM Turn off the Cybook. If it's still there when you turn it back on, then the screen is defective. Gibbo 11-11-2007, 09:08 AM Yep it's still there when turned back on, sending email to Bookeen. HarryT 11-11-2007, 09:19 AM How annoying for you :(. Please do let us know what Bookeen say about repair arrangements. Gibbo 11-11-2007, 09:44 AM After a few minutes with the cybook off turned I it on and the line was fainter after a few page turns it disappeared!!!. Switched it off and on a few times and it's fine. HarryT 11-11-2007, 11:37 AM Good news! Gibbo 11-11-2007, 11:43 AM Actually this past hour it has appeared and disappeared 3 times so what gives?. JSWolf 11-11-2007, 05:16 PM Derek's Cybook Gen3 also has a line on his screen. HarryT 11-12-2007, 01:14 AM Sounds like an intermittent fault on the screen controller. Needs replacing, I fear. mota 11-12-2007, 02:04 AM Is it black or white line? White line could be from ghosting and disappears when you switch on Flashing Refresh. M. tribble 11-12-2007, 02:30 AM Probably a loose contact. I guess you will have to return the unit. JSWolf 11-12-2007, 03:34 AM Will Bookeen pick up the shipping from you to them? tribble 11-12-2007, 03:41 AM Will Bookeen pick up the shipping from you to them? Oh, yes, i am curious about that aswell. tcmoon 11-22-2007, 07:42 PM Turned mine on & it has a white line & nothing else. What should I do? HarryT 11-23-2007, 01:52 AM Will Bookeen pick up the shipping from you to them? No. You pay for the shipping to them. They pay for the shipping back to you. That's the way it generally works with European warranties. BuSab 11-27-2007, 11:02 AM I've a line on my cybook too, for a week. The line is reverse video, white when the screen is black and black when the screen is white. Unlike gibbo, the line is always here, even after several turning on/off cycle. I think i'll wait for bookeen to have some spare in stock before sending it for waranty, I don't want to wait a month or two to have my cybook back. JSWolf 12-06-2007, 01:50 PM Supposedly Bookeen is supposed to be shipping more on Monday. So you might want to give support a message about your Gen3. |
