Classmate control

[2010FRC1403]

What happens if the classmate dies and we need to replace it. They are not available from manufacture to buy, what can we substitute to use as a back up?

I would like to purchase a duplicate Classmate PC to keep on-hand in the event of a failure of the Classmate provided in the kit of parts. According to the "2010 Where to get more_RevA.xls" spreadsheet, CTL Corporation has a replacement part. My team contacted CTL and they were not able to provide the exact Classmate PC that was provided in the kit, and they recommended this replacement (Link: http://www.ctlcorp.com/v4/p-872-ctl-...ok-laptop.aspx) as a substitute.

Is there a source for an exact replacement Classmate PC as received in the kit of parts (IE A part number that we can order from CTL), or is there an authorized replacement model that we may purchase for use during a competition in the event of a failure of our primary Classmate PC at the event?

This model (http://www.ctlcorp.com/v4/p-872-ctl-...ok-laptop.aspx) is considered a REPLACEMENT PART for the kit Classmate and is permitted at competitions.
