Clie NX70V battery change

[filosnet]

Hi all,
I just bought a new battery for my cliè from www.ebatts.com.
It doesn't come with the screwdriver (like the one from www.cliebattery.com) so my problem is that I cannot open the cliè!!
Which screwdriver can I use ??
thanks

According to http://www.cliebattery.com/up503759install.htmIt's just a standard mini-philips. Go into any hardware store and ask for a 'jewlers set'. It looks like this (http://www.stanleytools.com/default.asp?CATEGORY=SCREWDRIVER+SET&TYPE=PRODUCT&PARTNUMBER=66-039&SDesc=6%2DPiece+Jewelers+Screwdriver+Set).

They're indispensable, standard household equiptment.

Thanks, I have those, but it seems that the screws of the cliè are not standard "star", so a normal "star" screwdriver has a end that disturbs the normal working of the screwdriver, so it doesn't work... Someone told me that I have to use a "flat star" screwdriver, that has no spike at the end.. (I hope that the concept of "star screwdriver" is clear, I'm translating directly from italian words....).
Thanks

It seems you're right. According to http://www.pspilot.de/pppnx70/pppnx70.html he made a custom screwdriver to get into it. :eek:

Well, sony's got me stumped. Anyone else know what to do?

I suppose you could go to a sony store/repair shop and ask them to install it for you.

Typical sony, even the screws are proprietry :rolleyes:
