i have sprayed my pilot with window cleaner.....yeah i no i'm dumb
a bubble has gotten under the screen and i cant remove it. I tried heating it up (evaporation theory) to no avail. I am after ideas for help but would love a copy of a parts breakdown.
PLEEEEEZE

Just curious...how did he fix it?

I'd give you a parts breakdown if I could, but you see this is, like, my second post, so you know I don't know all super-duper stuff.

Cheers,

after takinout the 4 screws in the back of the palm
You gently pull it apart.
Undo the power......red/black.......then the screen comes apart slowly.
He fixes cameras all day so anything electrical with circuits etc. is his domain

This can be useful when the power button jams full of grit and wont work as it is meant to

Interesting story. This reminds me of the graveyard section on palminfocenter.com

There is a good ending and a good moral to this tale. Never fear taking the Palm apart if it looks like your nearly out of luck anyway. Of course if your still under warrantee send it to Palm. Of all the Palms only the Palm V/Vx, which is glued together, is a bit of a problem to split apart.
