Just called Palm and sent the unit in for replacement. The Palm support
folk here in Japan are really polite, and I have nothing but
compliments for the quick support that Palm offers, but it's just soooo frustrating to
have to send in a unit every month <grrrr>
Hoping for better luck with the replacement unit!
