Sharp Japan told Sharp USA that they should repair it for me. Unfortunately, the cost is $128 parts, $100 labor and $20 shipping from LA back to me. Total repair is $259 for a $199 unit. I don't think I'll do the repair, but that leaves me with 2 spare batteries for it which cost me $50 each. I guess I'll just have to sell them if they don't fit whatever player I buy. > Ron LaPedis > Compaq Professional Services ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
