All the PBs I've swapped had the sunken power button except for the last one, which had a 020511 date on the box. All the other ones were xx0311 or xx0411. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Sticker on the side on the box where the UPC code is.
The Source has the charging pod for $17 in-store only. Best to call around for stock. http://www.thesource.ca/estore/produ...1713122&aff=cj Posted via RS Mobile | |

If you're still running the stock OS, make sure you update to V1.08. WiFi is noticeably better and pages with Flash load more quickly.

It's that kinda shit that would drive me crazy, and want to exchange it straight away. | It tells you to charge it while you are updating. Just try to keep it charged for a few hours to see if it is charging. Chances are the battery is just completely drained.
