Re: Help needed with dead colour Pronto

["keyvan2r" <keyvan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Phil
I am not sure if I bought this one from LA, can't remember. I have a
couple (B&W NG bought about 2/3 weeks ago) which I bought from LA.
And needless to say I will all future pronto's from LA :-But I know
it's out of warranty anyway.
Can I buy a new charger/cradle?
And I presume no chance of a replacement battery? Is there somewhere
I can send it for repair?
Or is it like an IPOD - not repairable.

Thanks

Keyvan
