I found a small crack in my VDX. in the Blue top cover, just under the on/off button. (under the button, on the side, the crack extending from just under the button to where the blue-top and ice-bottom meet.)

I purchased it 11/99. Is it still in warranty?

Probably doesn't affect the functionality. Should I care?

Thanks.

Well, the spot your crack is in is the weakest of the top case. It was the spot most likely to crack. There are instant-glue variations available to repair plastic, if it's open enough to bother you.

Call Handspring, though, to see if they'll replace it for you. They have a great reputation for service, and might surprise you with a new one.

I have a similar crack in my green VDX. Doesn't seem to affect it though.

Yup. Mine has had one since Day one. Doesn't bug me tho. As long as it still works I don't care.

Check this thread. Mine had a crack which became a chip. Then the Cover cracked also. Plus it had the DRAM bug which affected battery life.

I had mine replaced, and am glad I did.
