"what were the circumstances of your ipaq meltdown? "

I plugged it into the charger. The little yellow light went "blink, blinl, blink, off". I smelled the tell-tail odor of burning LiIon Polymer. Yeah, amazingly I still have warranty, I go the thing in August 2000...

The upside is that according to the guy I talked to, an out of warranty repair is a flat $125. Which is fairly cheap considering...
