The Jornada I picked up for parts was from a friend, who said it just stopped working but before that was working great, including its screen. He suggested I first try taking apart his Jornada and putting it back together, in case it was just a loose screw or something. I did that and it worked perfectly! So I'm now using his repaired model and have my old one for parts.

My friend's Jornada was in much better condition than mine. He always carried it in a case on his belt, while I carried mine in my pants pocket. I dropped mine a few times and it was pretty banged up.
Glad to see you found the instructions and very sorry that I did not follow up on my offer to post some of my own ops: . Damn digital camera let me down and then it sort of got pushed to the back.

As I said - glad things worked out for you.

No problem. The guy who posted the instructions I followed was very thorough and clear in both his text and photos. He charged $6 to download them but now I have a practically new Jornada for around $50.
