Hi Chod and John,

I've got a similar problem with a few of my units regarding the stylus
registration.
One unit has a problem at the calibration screen. Sometimes it will
not register any stylus contacts.... other times it will but with
difficulty on the lower right 'X' in portrait (default with speaker on
the upper right). Not sure if it is the case or not but with a little
fiddling with the case it will register the stylus contact. And at
times it requires firmer pressure of the stylus to register the
contacts. It should not be the cable contacts as I've cleaned them
before...

Fortunately they will eventually work after a few tries....

Chod what is your experience with your two units? mine too are the MP2100s.
