It tumbled, spilled really, out of the Volvo to the parking lot. Picking it up, I noticed the battery had fallen out, odd to have the screen on with no battery.

I put it all back together and it worked fine. The next morning it began to freak out again. It worked when I put it in my desk drawer, did not work when I took it out.

I gave it to the Electronics Shop. Dropped it off at the end of the day, by the time I reached the front gate the called me to say it was fixed. THey opened the round portal next to the battery and reconnected a loose connector to the screen.

Fine. I stopped by this morning. It is dead again. Lines across the screen. Resetting gives us a silver thermometer as it reboots. Then nothing. The connection to the screen is broke.

What do you think of the options? Does this thing has a warrantee?
