Lost a screw that holds the keypad plate.

Spilled a little soda onto the keypad area. Got it cleaned up in time and finally picked up a T5 torx screwdriver today.

Taking the treo apart and when I got to those 2 tiny screws that holds the keypad plate one of the screws got launched from the little metal tabs that they screw thru. I've been looking for 2 hours with a speaker magnet on the carpet and I just can't find it. There are 2 of these tiny screws and I only have one. I cleaned the keypad out and the back of the faceplate. It really didn't even need to be cleaned after all.

Anyway, does anyone know where I can get another screw or even the size of it? I forgot to take a photo of the inside of the treo where it goes.
I've taken apart an old Casio electronic address book to pilfer a screw from that, but they are still too big.

So far the treo works. I just dont' know how the missing screw will affect the pressure pad for the keypad when typing.

Thanks for any help.

OK- Found the screw. Whew.! Thank god for large powerful speaker magnets!

I've got a request to ask 750 owners...

I don't know if the upper part of the keypad is fully installed correctly. It's actually the part right under the screen with the center directional pad and the button int he middle. When I press the directional buttons get a definite click from the buttons (I'm not referring to the software clicks). Although, the Up button doesn't give me a click, but it still works in scrolling on the screen. Can anyone press these buttons and verify for me that the up button does have that audible felt click from the button? In reinstalling that part, the little rubber nub on the back of the UP key may not be pointing straight down and thereby not clicking. If so, I;ll have to take it apart again and realign the pads.

Thanks!
