Re: Fried Cam?

Umm, it looks like one of our ICs is fried, completely dead. The power cannot be attached the wrong way, I always put the black where the little B is. And even if it was, that wouldn't cause a really big problem, the camera would just not work. It shouldn't get so hot as to burn someone (like me!). I was only feeding it 5V. I contacted IFI, the short was right underneath the lens part of the camera on an IC, but the other heat up quickly as well. Comments or anything? It's very much appreciated guys!
