I am in mourning today...

Yesterday I drove a van for a company I sometimes work with, and wanted to use my TomTom, but I didn't have my spare power adapter with me.

"Oh we've got an old one we don't use somewhere" they said. Without thinking, I plugged it in, there was a brief glimmer of green light then the unmistakable smell of burning electronics Crying or Very sad
"How strange " they said, that's just what happened to ours"

AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!! Evil or Very Mad

The worst of it is I TOLD them about six months ago about the dodgy early cigar lighter adapters.
I could kick myself.
Anyone know how much Eldar charges for this repair (although I'm almost too embarrassed to ask him!)

Actually, even worse, the new models come out in a week or so.... shame I've no money (just two teenagers... :o )

Would you accept the left arms of both my children? Wink

Many thanks "Eldar", I would give you a call, but I can't seem to find a phone number anywhere on your site! I'll use the email form on the "Contacts" page...

Well, the long awaited return parcel has arrived!

Thank you to Sergi and Richard ("Eldar") at SatNav Shop for trying Thumbs Up

But now... anyone know of ANYWHERE that has 720's still in stock?
