Now, I love my MZ-N10, have ever since I got it. But just yesterday I noticed a severe problem with the battery cage. To put it simply: it's come loose. To clarify: the locking screw doesn't seem to actually lock the cage to the body of the Minidisc--I fear the screw-hole has been stripped, but it doesn't seem to be fully stripped as there is still some grip. The end result, however, is that I can't trust the battery cage to maintain contact (and thus supply power) and I fear that the contact point will be broken (as the cage now tends to bend back and forth while attached, even just in my pocket). Is there anything I can do about this (that won't cost as much as replacing the damn thing) or am I simply relegated to using the internal battery for the rest of my MZ-N10's life?
