Hi everybody, I just got my first Poly-800 and it is a lot of fun. I have one concern though... it doesn't seem to work with any AC adapters. It works fine with batteries. But if I ever try to operate it with the AC adapter plugged in, it simply won't turn on. As soon as I pull out the AC adapter it turns on and operates off the batteries. The eBay seller told me that the Poly-800 uses a longer-tipped AC adapter than most, so I will need better than a garden-variety adapter. This doesn't seem very plausible but I'm willing to believe him (it's a happier idea than taking it apart after only the first week). The sale didn't include the original adapter so I've had to improvise. I have tried a Sony 9v DC negative-tip 300ma and a Roland 9v DC negative-tip 1000ma. Both adapters work with other gadgets. The AC jack does not seem to be loose, and light wiggling has no effect on it. Any help appreciated. Thanks T
