Visor display dims then fades away.

Visor was working fine. Display upon switching on is fine for a few seconds then starts to dim until it is unreadable. Currently travelling with Visor, and hope that this problem can be fixed while I am on the road. Always used Alkaline batteries, and changed them when advised. Unit has never been dropped, always handled with care.

Any input appreciated

Thanks

Don't forget warm reset

A warm reset is something I rely on when I'm (re)installing software that has a button assigned to it. Seems like always get a Fatal Error during the hotsync installation. So I do a warm reset (hole down the up arrow while reset with paperclip) and things go perfectly. I just have to remember to do another soft reset after the hotsync and hotsync again to backup (BackupBuddy) the new version etc.
