Does Casio sell as a repair part the entire CPU/Chipset mainboard?
What is the price? Is it conceivable that this entire part could
be replaced with a higher performance part? This would, of course,
only be salvaging the cost of the case and touch-screen. (Personally,
my Zoomer will be depreciated down to zero value real soon now, so
I'm not seriously looking for an upgrade.... It's more of a hacker
intellectual exercise. ;-)
