zen micro died :(

looks like my creative zen micro has died...it wont power on at all, even if i charge it for ages...

not sure whats happened...it was fine when i charged it last week...ran the battery totally flat as usual...charged it again...nothing...totally dead...

if the battery was knackered, wouldnt i have noticed a slow decline in battery life?

any ideas at all peeps? it hasnt been dropped (recently

), and nothing else unusual has happened to it...

repaired it!

update:

took it apart and found that the poer switch had apparently been soldered to the circuit board without the use of actual solder...maybe for novelty purposes?

anyway...5 mins with the soldering iron and all is well again...sorted
