[comp.sys.handhelds] repairing an hp-41cv?

bader+@andrew.cmu.edu (Miles Bader) (09/21/90)

A friend of mine gave me an hp-41cv that doesn't work (it doesn't even turn
on), and I want to get it repaired.  Reading the manual suggests that I can
just send it in to the address given at HP, but says I need to send an "hp-41
System Service Card" along with it; I can't find anything with that label in
the stuff with the calculator.  So does anyone know what it is, and hopefully
how I can get one?

I'm assuming, of course, that hp still repairs old calculators; should I call
them first or something?

Thanks,
