I've been pretty rough with my 1 GHz Pandora. I carry it with me everywhere and have dropped it on a few occasions (usually causing a reboot). Today, it fell a long way and the backlight stopped working.
After 30 mins of trying to coax it back to life by squeezing things and rebooting I took a screwdriver to the front to take a look behind the screen. I couldn't see any loose connections. The screen itself seems to be fine as I'm able to see my desktop in bright enough light.
Might there be a way to fix the backlight or am I looking at a RMA? As I've said, I've been pretty rough on my unit so the case, nubs, keyboard, etc will likely be of little value to anyone other than myself. Would it cost much to just have the backlight repaired? How about just keeping the guts and replacing the peripherals?
Thanks.
