    A language imperative: Plain English and some model names and numbers and your bb supplier might result in more replies.

    It seems pretty straight forward to me.

    His uplinky thingymagiggy on his whatchamacallit gizmo isnt working.

    All we gotta do now is figure out how to make it work. Simple.

    Asking the question on an Australian website may be more useful.
