Re: [NTLK] MP2100 Offset of Recognition

Mr. Brown,

Thank you. A recent holiday to the wilds of Manitoba may be a contributing
factor. (Amazing what you can find once you have the correct term:
"JAGGIES") The archives is a wonderful source as is Eckhart's PDA soft site.
The link to the PDF file on the WWNC2007 site appears broken. If anyone has
a copy they can share that would be great.

The way I see it my issue is likely dirt under the case to screen. I'm
usually diligent about that but obviously dropped the ball while on
holidays. "Apart she comes" for a good cleaning. Thanks all. I think I'm on
the right trail.

Now, where's my poutine and sledgehammer? :)

Thank you,
Stefan Thorsteinson

to reiterate - it's almost certainly a case of "the jaggies": dust or
a crumb caught between the screen and the screen bezel, or something
about the case itself, putting pressure on the pressure sensitive
screen layer.
if cleaning under the bezel does not work, then a more serious
adjustment to the geometry of the inside of the case may be required -
in either situation, plenty of detailed instructions are in the list
archives
