Thanks so much, PPC_N00B.
I was afraid of that relocker restriction.
Okay, here's another neophyte question. Anyone know of a simplified ROM that won't try and activate the radio on boot (I know, I know, probably stupid to have a phone ROM that doesn't actually try and be a phone). I was just thinking that if I could get something like that, I could go back and try the relocker, and at least try and get the original bootloader ROM on there.
I think what's happened, in looking around, is that I suffered a badly timed HW failure on my P4000, and of course, have now probably voided my warranty. Even if it is a physical problem.
Aarrggh. I can't afford this.
