Toshiba LCD Trouble

Not sure if I posted this info or not.

For a while I was having trouble with the LCD on my Toshiba Satellite Pro
4600 flickering and going black. Sometimes 4 or 5 times a day.

About two weeks ago now I took the bezel off the LCD, removed and
reinstalled the inverter. Ever since then I’ve never had a problem with the
LCD flickering or going black.

Just thought I’d pass that along.

    Just the LCDs?

    I need some eraser heads, a new optical drive (DVD/CD-RW), 2x 256MB SODIMMs
    and a nice mini-PCI 802.11g card. ;)

    The little eraser head in the middle of the keyboard, the name just eludes
    me at the moment.

    How much do you want for the wifi card?

    Do you know of any preferred retailers?

    Toshiba sells them directly, but they are relatively expensive (that
    means about $3 each, but you have to buy a "package" of them, and the
    shipping cost may be as much as the merchandise).  They can be bought
    more reasonably on E-Bay as well.
