Hi all, I recently picked up a "for parts, not working" M100 on Ebay. After a quick inspection where I didn't see any obvious damage, I tried powering it up with a wall wart. Much to my surprise, it came up immediately and seems to work just fine (keyboard, display, etc). My guess is that the corrosion in the battery case wasn't cleaned enough and is preventing battery operation. It needs cleaning and a new varta, but that's about it.
My dilemma is that I have a M102 with some bad keys, and my intention was to use the M100 as a parts doner. I really don't want to destroy a working system. Does anyone here have a doner keyboard that's in reasonable order? Looking for mainly the locking keys (caps, num lock) and the function/arrow keys. I may just end up keeping the M100, though I really don't have a need for it. :-) Thanks, Matt
