Re: Sansa Clip+ won't turn on

Pablo,
I forgot if you mentioned it in your original post, but did you try it with 
the card out?
I'm not sure how that would matter, but it's another thing to consider.
Also, I don't know if it shows up when plugged in, but if it does show up on 
the computer, maybe just the display is gone, and then you could use the 
talking feature, if you don't already.

Glenn, I'd take any suggestion gladly, obvious or not. I'm hooking up the 
device
to my laptop, I know the cable works but I tried the spare one I have, still
nothing. The battery seems rated to 3.7 V, at least that what I read from 
the
markings on it. The tester reads 3.7 V in the battery wires, and it goes up 
to
3.8 V when hooked up to USB power.

Thanks bunn. I tried about 5 minutes, until my finger when numb. I'll see if 
I
can hold a bit longer next time, but if 5 minutes didn't help it seems 
unlikely
more will make a difference.
