Hrm. Just did a new hard reset. Went into Dates, created some stuff, and
ZAP! turned itself off. Well, I guess I'll be opening it up tonight.
I've read David Humphrey's site, figuring that that's about all I'll need
to open it up. While I've got it open, I figured I'd clean the glass
nicely. Or should I just open it, fix the battery contact, and get it
back together?
Caveats, anyone?
