Jim,

The i5 520 that shipped in here early November had a device on each of the 
boxes to detect handling during shipment.  They even have an LED display.  I 
wonder if it is that device chirping?  When removed from the container, That 
would have been enough stress to set the thing off.  See anything like that on 
your shipping containers?

Regards,

Mike Shaw
