Many thanks for all the replies. I'll refrain from returning mine as faulty.

I've had this machine for a couple of days now, and although it's not perfect (then again, neither am I), and I am converting from palm, I have to say this is a nice machine for the price.

I have loads of questions, but not for this thread. The main issues I have with regards to hardware are...

1) The aformentioned green light

2) The lack of a flip screen protector. My previous machine (a palm M105) has a very simple but very effective flip cover that adds next to nothing in terms of bulk or weight. It can be removed easly and had served me well for nearly 2 years.

All it requires are a couple of small anchor holes in the top of the PDA. It's so simple and effective, I cannot understand why other PDA manufacturers have not duplicated this facility (unless palm have some form of copyright) It would also allow the third party protector manufacturers to provide smaller, neater solutions.

I've bit the bullit and ordered a Senna case. Not my preferred type of case, but seems like a good all-round solution.

Just my 2 pene'th based on a very short time with my baby :)

Once again, thanks for the feedback.
