Re: [NTLK] eMate question

Hi Dean,

I've faced the same situation with my emate a month ago and I panic!
Fortunately I realized later that the brightness setting was too high!
I've just lower it to the regular level and the problem was solved! :)

Hopefully this is your case as well!

Best,
Carlos
