Input:
~ okay; it's true, it worked fine when i first took it out of the package, installed batteries and used it for several hours that first day while on vacation. I used it perhaps two more times the summer i purchased it (2010), then stowed it in the canvas bag where i keep all my writing materials.

I pulled it out just now, installed FRESH batteries -  fairly certain that the old ones were kaput after 2 years in storage  - and can't get ANY power. I tried 3 other pairs of batteries (ALL fresh - none that were pre-used) and still; nada.

I didn't even get 5 good uses out of this thing. Regardless of how long in between uses - it should power-up with new batteries. I'm very frustrated at this moment and am tempted to chuck this thing into the trash bin. I'll stall that action for 3 hours, until my husband gets home, in case i'm missing something (although i can't imagine what).

Anybody else out there had similar issues? Is it a user-error?
