I have been having intermittent failures with my voice power card, and
have now discovered that if I jiggle it by the handle (even with it
still screwed to the 3b1 chassis), it will start working again.  In
light of this, I suspect the 99pin connector.

Anybody else had trouble with these connectors?  I've always been suspicious
because I didn't feel a very positive snug fit when inserting cards, but
until now, I've never had a failure.
