    does anyone know much about these? I can't seem to get the **** thing to power on. My cousin brought it to me one day and said it just stopped working. I've tried replacing the battery, and replacing the power supply, but no matter what, it will not power on.

    What can i do to figure out what to replace. I've seen motherboards for these for very cheap on ebay.. would that be a good idea to try?

    Thanks guys.
