Bad news, worse news, good news, better news

Okay, first the bad news:
Sunday night I spilled a full drink (scotch if you must know) on my Axim 30H. What a waste of scotch.

worse news:
I took my Axim apart to let it dry out and in the process - crack the screen. :realmad:

good news:
Sunday night still, I order a new screen. It's delivered on Tuesday and I install it - no problems. :approve:

better news:
My boss decides he needs to upgrade his PDA and wants to be sure mine is compatible so he buys me an Axim x50v.

I guess the phrase "All's well that ends well" fits rather nicely in this situation. :)

A slight alteration of this advice:

Next, holding your device firmly, SUCK IT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT, (alternating each of the four sides) to remove as much excess fluid from inside the device, as possible.

I did say, "THIS SUCKS!" with all my might.

You know, as I was taking it apart, I kept telling myself, "self, you should stop now. Don't mess with the screen. Leave it alone and walk away."

And then, given that my brain isn't connect to my hands, I tried to pry the digitizer off. Surely, this should come right off...<craaaaack>.

"THIS SUCKS!"
