Hey hows it going?

I just wanted to see if anyone else is having a problem when it comes to charging their Zen stone. It's been working perfectly for about 2 months. But, just the other day while it was in the middle of a song, it turned itself off. I thought it was pretty weird. Pressed play again and shut itself off after 30 sec. Got it home and plugged it in and the orange led was blinking 3 times. I left it and came back after a few hrs and it was still blinking away, 3 times, no solid state. So during the night I just kept playing it until the battery was fully drained. Plug it in now and its only blinking once, and it's been plugged in for over 3 hrs now and its still on the one blink.

It's on the latest firmware and I have also pressed the reset button. Still no joy.

Just wanted to check to see if there was a fix, or has it gone on the blink?

Shame if it has cause I was expecting a bit more life from it. Probably cost them less than 50p to make to be honest.
 
Well I got desperate in the end and bought a 2Gb Muvo T100 for 20 quid. Not too bad considering a 1Gb Zen Stone cost the same. In the mean time I just read through forums and eventually I thought I would just take the Stone apart and poke around, as you do.
I dunno what I did, but its charging now. So, got a new-ish mp3 player on the way and I guess I will just keep this one as a back up or vice-versa.

Thanks for the help and advice tho.:)
