Well that's too bad. Apparently the current Colibri is Colibri in name only. Someone probably bought the name and is selling knock-off, Chinese junk at ridiculous markup because they can paste "Colibri" on it.

Well, if it was me and if I was determined to get it working again, what I would do is watch ebay for a working unit and when I found one, swap the working guts with your shell. Might be sort of hard to find a working one tho if it's old and somewhat rare.
