Thanks Colin for the reply.
I've seen the screensaver function in the last beta,
but maybe it was too late: indeed seems i have left my P3 turned on for too
many hours,
i really didn't know that, otherwise i'd payed more attention.
Btw i'll order a new LCD as soon as you make the order page.
Thanks again.
Bye
