Got home today and realized I didn't have my MS in my clie as I tried to load up Noah. Looked EVERYwhere for the thing before I realized that the thing must've popped out when I dropped the Clie today while I was on the phone at work! That's the only possible reason I could come up with. Hope it's still on the floor somewhere and the janitors don't sweep it away!! =-( I can't afford another stick, and all my apps are on it!! augh!!!
sorry, just need to whine, thank you for your patience.

Happened to me once, fortunately I had a backup on the computer, unfortuantely taht backup was made b4 i moved many apps to MS, so they were gone from the backup area, I had to manually hunt done some of them again, and i still wonder if i have all of them...

Thanks everyone!
At work now, and there's no sign of my MS =-( so either it fell out somewhere else or the janitors swept it away. *sigh* either way, think I'm gonna need to get a new one. Thanks DanT for the heads up on PCMall, I'll check it out.
How the heck does it pop out after a drop anyway? My Clie was in it's Innopocket case the entire time, it fell while in the case, never had the MS pop out that way before!

Bummer. My Clie is in a zippered vinyl case that flips open like a Star Trek communicator. If the MS ever pops out accidently, the "hinge" of the case will keep it from going anywhere and might even push it back in.
But, yes, the mechanism in the Clie does pop the MS out if it is jarred too badly. And, of course, if you drop it such that it lands on the MS slot, that will eject it normally.

Thanks for the tip.
It looks like ecost.com, macmall, Clubmac, CCIT and WareForce is also participating in this rebate.

think I can declare it officially lost. Time to start saving for new stick.
if only PCMall shipped to Canada, I'd be back in business already *sigh* at the moment, lowest prices I've found is $99 CDN for a Lexar 128mb.....
I'd get a 64MB and save some cash, but 1 not enough space and 2 not worth the price difference.

If you are Christian (or just desperate), you could pray to St. Anthony, the saint of lost items. Or St. Jude, the saint of hopeless causes. I'm not trying to make this a religious debate, just trying to think of anything that could help.

After reading reviews, on resellerratings.com I'm weary of ordering the MS. I'm going to wait until another reputable dealer like Amazon has a good price on it.
