    Im perturbed but not terribly ....... It very well could have been something i did etc. However on the bright side, Mike's goody box arrives tmw..I'll turn it into a dna30! However getting the screen out of the cradled that it's epoxied into might be a chore.

    So I have come across an interesting problem. About halfway thou the day yesterday, I started getting check battery warnings and battery level dropped pretty much from full to empty.
