Re: OmniGo crashing & rebooting

Hi all,

I've been having a problem with my OmniGo 100 for a while now and it has
finally become frequent enough to try and get it fixed.

Every once in a while I turn it on, the screen comes on, goes blank for for a
second, and then comes on with 3 horizontal lines. It then either reboots
itself or freezes until I take out the batteries. All the times it has
rebooted itself it comes up with all memory cleared and asking for pen
calibration. Once it did reboot itself and came up but had all my info in
place.

I've been keeping all my data on the SRAM card after this happened a few
times, so it only takes a few minutes to get back to where I was, but like I
said before, it has gotten a lot more frequent lately.
Please note that this problem was occurring even before I started storing my
data on the SRAM card.

Serial number is SG54511610.

I'll probably have to talk to HP about a replacement/repair, but before I did
I just wanted to see if anyone out there has had a similar experience with
his/her OmniGo.

Any thoughts / help appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
