After about 2 years, I had to have mine replaced as well, and this for the second time. I guess that I may have been carrying my iBook too much around, pulling the UFO along like a dog. Perhaps when lying in bed, I can have pulled the cord excessively while being on top of it or something. I also notice that when rolling it up into the UFO, there is a strain on the cord, if it is pulled tightly. Could be that too. Cheers, Kim On 16/11/03 0:47, "Harry D.
