    Hi guys,

    I just unboxed my new AAO (110-Aw), put it onto charger and turned on... When the AAO is connected to the charger, the screen flickers. I'd rather say it's flashing as in approx 1 sec intervals the screen goes black and then back on. I made a video, put it on YouTube - you can see that something is wrong there.
    Build date is 0809, bios version was 3301, I did a succesful upgrade to 3308 - nothing changed :( I tried to plug it into a socket in other room, same problem, as soon as the charger is connected, screen is flashing - regardless whether it's charging or running on AC power.
    Has anyone an idea, what can be wrong?

    Thanks in advance!

    Problem solved - took back the device to store and they replaced the charger. The new one works like charm :cool:
