well, after sending my R40 to the motherboard repair shop, it appears that I was ebay-burned. it was tampered with and someone unsuccessfullyt tried to repair it.
I'm now needing a R40 motherboard.. if anyone has one?

thx

im going crazy trying to find the documentation, but i cant...

call 1-877-568-4815 and speak to a representative who can tell you if it works in canada.

edit: sorry forgot the info- they have 1 and 2 year warranties you can get even after the original warranty runs out. for $180USD including tax, it will more than pay for itself considering there are currently a few problems with mine, and who knows what the future holds.

If the board was tampered with, as you previously stated...the post warranty will not cover it.
