I can't help with the camera, but I wanted to let you know that I love the star necklace! Your camera situation must be as annoying as the letter 'e' sticking on my keyboard right now.
I work at a camera shop (Delaware Camera, or Cameraspot.com), and just yesterday a gentleman came in with a Canon whose LCD screen had gone black. The way it works is that we have to send out cameras to the manufacturer for repair. Issues like that are often loose wires, or worse, broken solder points on the internal cards-- think of the motherboard on your computer, only tiny. There's not really a chance that someone at home could just fix it, or that it'll get better on its own. My store charges $20-$50 to send out cameras for repair; the manufacturer will charge $60-120 on top of that to actually perform the repair. Most of that expense is labor. Something as simple as replacing the battery door when there's an obvious mechanical defect and obviously no other issue with the camera is $60. The only time this is cheaper is if the camera was brand new and under warranty
