I have a P300/3 here which is destined to be put out in the next council cleanup in a couple of weeks. I don't know whether the PSU fits the P400/6, but it's yours if you want it.

RE: [SLUG] Re: Linux netbook?
Yea I have seen ones where they replace the outer casing with something like '16G' but really its only 2G. It's the risk you take with online purchases I guess, it is a big problem with the memory cards used in the Sony PSP consoles.

Oh, the other issue I encountered was the original SD card I used was a fake --- it purported to be a LENXS 16G card, but actually appeared to be an 8G card with firmware bodged up to look like 16G. There are apparently a lot of such cards on the market --- caveat emptor.

[SLUG] Thank you SLUG
I've had a minor annoyance with my one of my machines for a few weeks now, but it didn't bother me enough to do anything about it. It was just one of those nags. So this morning when I couldn't sleep, I decided to ask SLUG for advice. I proceeded to write out this longish email explaining the problem. As I wrote new ideas came to mind. So, I'd go away, check that, come back write some more, rephrase it all, think of something else and start the whole process over. In the end, I figured it out, resolved it well enough and learnt something in the process. So, I just wanted to say thanks for helping me out again SLUG. And you did it all in your sleep. -- Kind Regards Kyle -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
