Re: button replacements

2004-02-10 by ski_ex5tech

Blip and Joe - 

I would definitely contact Dave prior to making any purchases or 
performing any surgery yourselves, especially if your Evolvers are 
still under warranty.  From what I've seen, Dave has always provided 
extremely good service to anyone needing it.  Plus, if there are 
problems with the buttons, I'm sure he'll want to know about it;  if 
the problems were frequent, he might want to start using a different 
supplier.

Even if your Evolvers are out of warranty, I'd contact Dave first.  
At a bare minimum, he'd be able to tell you where to get exact 
replacement parts, but I'm sure he'd go farther than that to help you.
