Hi all, I guess we will never really get a tru iFix on this common problem. Fujifilm has also terminated the model.
My X30 still works OK but I moved on to Fujifilm FX10 that take the same NP95 battery as the X30. (Please, give it a good try before buying it. It is not as simple to use and love as the X30, but the sensor is great.)
I will miss the X10 and X30 as much as my Pentax MX
