Zeer aan te raden! Hier in de Bay Area zijn Pho-etablissementen enigszins te vergelijken met pitta-koten in Belgie, in de zin dat het de enige eettenten zijn die open zijn om 2 uur ’s nachts.

Many thanks to all for the very clear explanations.
I had a display problem, it was missing entire lines to the extent that the display was unreadable.
As “Tom Says: March 29th, 2007 at 7:09 am ” this is a very delicate area, don’t try to remove the tape.
The very fine conductors (wires) will certainly break rendering the display useless.

Really, this failure is quite predictable thus THIS IS A BUILT IN FAILURE BY GARMIN TO RIP YOU OFF.
I, for one do, not accept this and will never buy another Garmin as well as tell everybody about my experience.

Many, many thanks.

Used the info to repair a non functioning click stick on my old etrex legend. Slightly different layout but a blast of air and drop of WD40 has cleared the fault. The backlight doe not seem to work properly now (screen goes blank rather than lights up) but I can live without that as I don’t use it at night.

Thanks again

Comment on Anti-gravity powder by Martin Stenger

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I received a container of ANTI GRAVITY POWDER a long time ago. I first added water to it. It turned into slime, and then when i pulled my hands apart it made cob webs. i believe it was used for a magic trick. The illusion was to make something levitate without visible means. the refractive properties of the webs could not be seen under certain lighting. The webs had a tensile strength of the web was strong enough to levitate a balloon or feather. The impressive properties of the web was, it did not stick to anything. i would sincerely like to know what it was made of, and where i could get some more. If anyone can provide me with that information. it could be valuable to that person. You may contact me at mrmartinstenger@yahoo.com. or call me at 6198294915

I also experienced the joystick malfunction along with the horizontal lines across the screen. I wouldn’t have attempted this repair if it wasn’t for this post. I was able to reuse both tapes that seal the unit and the “glue” that holds the rubber band on, although the tapes picked up some sawdust from my workbench, I managed to salvage them. I was able to work on the joystick without disassembly of the ribbon/connector. I just sprayed it with CRC contact cleaner and blew it off, made sure the ribbon was in the connector and put it back together. The joystick is working fine and the screen looks OK but the lines across the screen I experienced was sporadic so more testing will be in order. Thanks to all who submitted pics and informative suggestions.

Dankoe! Met wat effort kan iedereen meer dan hij of zij denkt: elke keer een stukje langer rijden, en op de duur zit ge aan 100 mijl!

die waren niet zo straf als die om een fiets aan mekaar te hangen, maar om led-verlichting en cryogene muizen te bevestigen, of het moet zijn dat mijn geheugen aangetast is…

Plakband-constructies? Mijn geheugen dient opgefrist te worden, me dunkt… ofwel waren die wietdampen echt wel niet zo onschuldig!

geweldig!
doet me denken aan de plakband-constructies van Bok indertijd in Heverlee…

Bon. Ik heb er dus twee besteld.

Een voor mijn bureau. En een als toekomstig Kerstmis geschenk.

Hi evryone,
great useful posts, I came upon this page looking for a solution to my problem.
During a work trip in Africa the rubber band around my Vista Hcx got loose, making hitting the side buttons difficult as the band slips out of place very easily.
I guess that when exposed to high temperatures (above 38C, 100F) the material expands and the glue melts, a colleague of mine had the same problem with his unit.
I’ll try to use some silicon glue as suggested.
If anyone had the same issue please share…

thanks!

Onaanvaardbaar inderdaad! Uw werkgever dient dringend opnieuw het licht te zien. Of misschien dient een sponsor gezocht te worden voor foto-reportages op verplaatsing?

Het is nu wel duidelijk: er moet hier dringend opnieuw conferentiebudget komen, zo kan dit niet langer!

Hebt gij uzelf soms een paar dagen afgezonderd in een niet-tropisch regenwoud?

De eerste ritten van de Tour waren behoorlijk spektakelrijk. En om u te troosten: ze zijn ook door een aantal u vertrouwde gehuchten gereden, waaronder Edegem.

Comment on Het Sportgebeuren by Tom

Tom — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 17:35:31 +0000

Het is nu al woensdag en ik heb nog geen minuut informatie opgevangen van de Tour. Is hij echt al begonnen?

Maar het feit dat ze het nodig vonden om Wilrijk te passeren, doet het ergste vrezen.

O Tempora, O Mores…
