All the latest MI images from Opportunity shows this part of the rover:
http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars/opportuni...KCP2957M1M1.JPG The only thing I can think of is that it is an image taken with the IDD stowed. Actually the front hazcam pictures confirms this. What can the reason for this be? A problem with the IDD so it didn't unstow, but somehow the MI carried out its tasks? -------------------- "I want to make as many people as possible feel like they are part of this adventure.

They have to see if they can get the IDD working at some point. Why would they just completely give up on it without trying all the possibilities? Once they've tried everything they can think of to make the IDD work again, I'm sure they'll move on and do whatever they can (and periodically see if they can get it working again beyond that).
