Hi Matthew,
I remember that you stopped selling SpiderII's because of
the way Elbox does business with them and I was just wondering
if you are going to continue selling X-Surf's without at
least warning customers that Individual Computers is refusing
to honor the X-Surf warantee without reason or explanation for doing so? Thanks.

I have seen two types of problems with those buttons:
-"soft" one, the contacts are dirty (pressing the switch feels the same). In this case just use some contact spray, it works great. You don't even need to open the switch.
-"broken", the 'membrane' has been completely broken. You need to replace it. Those switches can be found in almost ANY electronics store, but you need the right height. If you don't care too much about looks and don't have new switch of same height, open it completely and replace membrane. (saves you from soldering). try to leave one of those 4 plastic holders 'alive'..

You must have great electronics stores there!  Around here, places where you can buy component parts retail are getting scarce.  Radio Schack is slowly converting into a cell-phone-only store.
