Hello all,
I have a PRS-300 which I've owned for just over 18 months.
She's always been temperamental. And she's actually my second unit- I took the first back after 2 days because it just wouldn't work.
Currently she won't charge/switch on or reset. I'm getting flashing amber lights and I can access the memory through the computer. When I plug her in she gives me a red light for about 10 minutes and then goes off. She refuses to switch on and the screen has a few odd lines on it which are not changing apart from the occasional flicker (when I plug it in or the amber light comes on).
Is she beyond fixing? My arm feels like it has fell off!
