I have a problem finding somebody to sell (or give for free) a spare part for my HP28: the battery cover It broke when I unloaded my study bag to the street while going downhill on my bike... (Btw. this was the only damaged part at the calc at all after it slid some 50 meters over the street, I was quick enough to reinsert the batteries to prevent a memory lost) Every dealer I asked told me that I would have to send in the calc to get a replacement (two weeks without it -- no way). So I ask here: is there anybody out there to give me the last remaining part of his crunched old calc or is there a way to actually buy one of these wonder plastic parts?
