    Hi there!

    As I don't usually type with the laptop keyboard, I just noticed that tonight.

    A light to moderate pressure on the left of the touchpad with a finger (about halfway to the left side) causes the DVD drive to trigger a read (you'll hear it click). It sometimes even happend when you put the palm of your hand with a little pressure.

    Anybody has this also?

    If there is a CD inside, look at the light, it will flash 5-6 times :confused: .

    Thanks! Anyone having this also?

    The thing is the drive seem to work ok. It's just a little annoying ... I'll ask Eurocom support to see what they think about it.

    Hi guys!

    Finally, I noticed I was loosing 75% of CDs when burning. So it has to be a defective ODD. Sent an email to Alen @ Eurocom. The day later a new drive was shipped. The day later, got the drive with Puro, including a shipping label to send back the defective ODD :D .

    Very nice 1st time support.

    The weird thing described above is also no more!
