Well, at least you can remove the batteries without breaking the case open.
Us poor Edge 605/705 owners do not have that luxury. :-)  The SD card is
removeable, but I guess the beep of death could be triggered by the internal
flash as well.  No, I don't have a Mac, so I don't really know if the
Edge is affected. 

BTW, a 2.90 firmware update for the Edge 605/705 was released this week.
Nothing special, and I haven't tried recording any traces with it yet.
The 2.70 badly broke the recording (it routinely corrupted the XML files).
