Hmm, I once put in a card too fast, so it didn't connect correctly 
(and wasn't ejected any more). I took my Wallstreet apart (keybord), 
but wasn't able to "see" anything.
Finally I remembered the manual ejection "hole" next to the slots. I 
pushed using a small, long tool (paper clip) and heard the typical 
ejecting sound. After this, the slot worked as fine as before.
