Harold, Because PDA's are embeded systems, there is no way of incorporating cooling fans. There is a way to check the battery temperature on the mPower: between the USB client port and the CF slot, you'll notice that there is a space. Behind this is the actual battery compartment. When the battery does not charge as expected, check this space. You'll notice that it is very warm. Disconnect the charger for about 3 to 5 mintues and reconnect it. It should start charging from where it left off. mPowers and Classics have a design where the battery compartment will shutdown when the temperature exceeds certain temperature. If this happens, the battery will not charge. Disconnect the power adapter and reconnect it once the case is cooled somewhat.

Lap tops have fans, but these note takers have no good way to stay cool. How about a carbon processor and so on for other components. My wifi card goes off and on when warm. best regards hal. ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
