    Yay, a brother! I was starting to wonder if I was hallucinating :D The LED is dim try to press it in the dark. If it's not the wow buttons I'm fairly certain the browser and mail button light up. ^^

    It doesn't have to be dark to see it. It lits only when the finger is on it, so your finger is probably hiding the light from you :)D sounds funny), but that's in my case. I don't have the WOW installed.

    The flat cable for the touch sensitive buttons might be disconnected form the electric board, which is underneath the cover.
    Try pressing the mute button, check if audio is muted.
    If not then the flat cable is disconnected from the electric board or the board/cable is broken.
    Just remove the touch sensitive cover.

    Yea, the audio mute (and the LED for that works fine)

    But the WOW buttons and mail and ect don't light up (JFL92 from Xotic)
