    Opened up my laptop a couple hours ago from a sleep and it immediately turned off the wireless. Thinking it was just a fluke, I pretty the wireless button and nothing happened. I can not for the life of me, get it to turn my wireless back on.

    I restarted my computer, still no wireless and the Windows Mobility Center thing has the "Turn Wireless On" grayed out. I suppose I can reinstall drivers (internet is slowwwww over my blackberry) but it shows up just fine under Device Manager.

    I'm all out of ideas. Any suggestions?

    Hrm..it appears none of the touch sensors are working at all now. Lame. Guess no one has any quick fixes and I need to spend the hours it'll take tech support to fix it.
