A2000 Dangers?
« on: July 06, 2007, 11:43:31 PM »
I know the A4000 battery danger. Are there any general dangers with an A2000? I just got one and want to protect my investment (ha.) as much as possible.

I apologize for posting the request for RAM on this forum instead of the SALE forum... my bad.

A thing to remember is the 2000 is a lot better at surving battery leakage than the 4000 and 3000 for that matter.  The battery seems to be far enough away to not ruin traces (as easily), but still I would remove it and avoid the possibility to prove me wrong.
