After more than 14 years of working with me, a good friend will pursue a new direction. The circumstances leading to this moment were not ideal to say the least. I always thought the farewell would be his retirement party.

I am still observing the battery, similar to 411 would be good enough for me. However, I notice that the keyboard/keypad lock icon is missing. The keyboard/keypad lock on top of the device also does not work.

What would happen to it?
