Re: POLL: How many times have you reflashed?

Never...still using OS2007 on my N800, and I don't want to jinx it while it's working OK.

Re: Amazon N800 bad lot.

You didn't mention charging the battery; is it possible you ran the battery down?

Re: New N800: Power jack broken, "extra?" memory card, and service?

I leave my N800 plugged in a good deal of the time, and it doesn't seem to hurt the battery. Have you tried plugging in a different charger?

Re: A website for Internet Tablet newbies

Thanks for all the work you do on the Internet Tablet School, krisse. I've been reading it since I got my N800, and learned quite a bit from your tutorials.

Re: Replacement Battery for N800

I bought my spare BP-5L battery from www.mobilecityonline.com. They are selling them for $49.99, and as far as I know, the battery is authentic.

Re: Where to buy the N800 from

Since you specifically asked about return policies, I can tell you that when I had to return my N800 to Amazon, it went very smoothly. They shipped the replacement out as soon as I called them,...

Re: 800 will not power up, I had lost the meter for battery strength

Thanks for the update...sorry the new battery didn't work, but now I know from your experience not to let my battery run down (at least, not when the battery icon is MIA). Hope the replacement works...

Re: 800 will not power up, I had lost the meter for battery strength

Unfortunately, I don't know how to fix the problem if your battery is totally dead. I did some searching on the boards here last night, and only found one other post (from last summer) mentioning the...

Re: 800 will not power up, I had lost the meter for battery strength

Hmm. I posted just last night in the Power On/Off Enigma thread that my battery icon had mysteriously disappeared. What I did was take the battery out, wait 10 minutes, then put it back in; this made...

Re: Power on/off enigma poll

I voted based on my first N800, which was so bad that I finally returned it. My current N800 has had no problems, but I very seldom turn it off for fear it will freak out like the first one did.

You might want to try a board search, because there are quite a few threads discussing the power issue and things to try to solve the problem.

Re: Flashing - How, without any power??

I think you made the right decision (sending it back). My first N800 bricked within 24 hours of receipt, and I could not flash it because it would not power up, no matter what I tried. My...

Re: message board setup

Do you know which view you are using now? I'm looking at my N800, which I have set to "Classic", and the dropdown box is down near the very bottom of the page, on the left side.

Re: The easy way to connect N800 to I go keyboard

This is great to know, General. I have one of these keyboards on the way, and just happen to already have a bottle of Ronsonol, so you've saved me from the needless suffering!
