thanks

this is a design flaw in the mogul. i have documented this problem with the mogul in the past on here at ppcgeeks.com. the problem is that whenever you slide open/close the keyboard, the ribbon cable that connects the phone to the lcd screen rub against a sharp piece of metal and over time the metal will cut into the ribbon and damage it. i have open up a couple of good working moguls and put a piece of tape over the sharp area and it pretty much cure this problem.
