I haven&amp;#39;t used it for a very long time, and it appears to not want to take a charge.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If I place it on the base with no battery in, it lights up, the screen says it&amp;#39;s searching for a base, and all appears well. As soon as I plug the battery in the phone goes dead (the red light stops blinking, the green light remains on the charging base).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;I&amp;#39;m assuming that either a) the battery is completely stuffed, or b) the charging circuit of the phone is knackered. I&amp;#39;ve googled for a replacement battery without much luck (apparently there is a Dantona or Sanyo battery that fits).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Does anyone have any advice, other than chuck it? I can&amp;#39;t really afford to get it fixed at the service centre (my local one wanted &amp;pound;40 just to take a look at it, because they send it back to B&amp;amp;O).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Steve&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
