- Well, My colorstation 25MHz had the same problem a few months back.
- Took it in for service, result: dead power supply. A few days ago
- same problem (would not start). Took the battery off for a few minutes
- and put it back. It works!! Same exact behaviour (starting from network
- because of the booting parameters).
