Canola has not been physically run in MONTHS! 2. The device does not charge; i plug in the power supply and nothing! i have to wiggle and *sometimes* it churps that the battery is charging So irrespective of the software on the device, the ability to put in the charger and expect it to charge is not one i would deem unreasonable!
