WOW! I didn't even think to see if anyone sells a just a motherboard. That's a great idea and under $20.

@knc1 given what you know, is there any reason to fear that replacing the motherboard would not resolve my issue? I realize that there's no guarantees, but I have a good screen and a good (I believe) power switch. There doesn't seem to be anything else.

Also... is the plastic case the same for PW Gen 2 and 3? Mine is a 2nd Gen, but the motherboard I can buy is a 3rd. I assume that the layout of points of attachment and size are identical.
