They do drain normal batteries quite quickly.
I have the recharging unit but to be honest, probably better of
with decent rechargables - cheaper than the docking cradle if nothing
else....
Contrast wise, you sure you''re not just accidentally moving the contrast wheel (happens to me all the
time) ???
Wouldn't worry about rubbish (apart from it looking kack!) as the
screens don't seem that sensitive a the edges...

Hi
guys.
For Xmas, I got a 2MB Pronto, and have noticed one or two
odd things.
* The AA's that came in the box only lasted about 2
weeks. I did do
a lot of learning and screen programming so
wasn't too worried.
* I replaced the batteries with 4 Duracells
2 weeks ago and the battery life
graphic in the setup screen shows
its lost 2 bars of power. Is this normal?
* The
contrast/brightness starts off very dim when I start using it for
the
first time in the evening, but by the end of the night I find
myself having
to reduce the brightness. Is this
normal?
* Is it possible to get dust or rubbish stuck in the
edges of the screen
which causes the screen to be continusly
pressed? Or don't touchscreens
work like that?
Thanks
(Should I be asking the peeps at remotecentral)
Rob
