Date: Sat, 26 Jun 2004 23:30:09 +0100 Thanks Fred, a friend's going to take a look at the unit tomorrow afternoon, I'd already invited him for dinner, so I might as well have him singing for his supper! smile. Maybe then, I'll have more of an idea of whether it's possible to repair it.

There are photos of disassembled Archos units under the "Hardware" section here: http://rockbox.haxx.se/twiki/bin/view/Main/DocsIndex If you don't know the dimensions of the jack, you could use a set of calipers to measure it. > Sure I do treat my Archos like a laptop, and one way round the > situation in the future would be to use some cordless headphones. Or, if you won't disturb others, small amplified speakers like one uses with computers. You could also consider an arrangement with an extension cable on the headphones (1/8" male plug to 1/8" female jack - stereo) whereby the cable is tied to the bed frame, a shelf, or some other item. Then if you fell asleep and rolled over, the headphone cable couldn't pull the Archos off onto the floor. Hopefully it would just unplug.
