ARGH!
moin the 2nd

my freerunner is back to life .. strange thing ..
i just connected to my powerbook (as external pwr-source instead of  
wall-charger) and inserted battery and it turned on ..

does anyone at OM know what's going on there?!
overnight i tried some scenarios without any success ..

ciao, morlac

p.s: Christoph: Entwarnung - ich würde nur verdammt gerne wissen, was  
da passiert ist.
