I would guess that something got seriously corrupted in the eMate memory and
only a hard reset would help, if the internal flash memory isn't damaged.
You know that flash memory has a certain number of write cycles. At some
point, you might start getting some errors regarding the memory.
Error -10606 is in the "Card Store Errors" and is "Object not found". I have
no idea of what that means. Maybe Paul Guyot, who did work in the storage
area, will have more substantial information to add...

COBOL, Apple's Hypertalk language, and a lot of the so-called `4GL' database languages share this property. The usual intent of such designs is that they be as English-like as possible, on the theory that they will then be easier for unskilled people to program. This intention comes to grief on the reality that syntax isn't what makes programming hard; it's the mental effort and organization required to specify an algorithm precisely that costs. Thus the invariable result is that `candygrammar' languages are just as difficult to program in as terser ones, and far more painful for the experienced hacker.-- This is the Newtontalk mailinglist - http://www.newtontalk.net To unsubscribe or manage: visit the above link or mailto:newtontalk-request_at_newtontalk.net?Subject=unsubscribe
