Going price for a Refurb TP

OK guys, I'm waiting for my refurb/replacement to arrive from HP after sending it in for the dreaded charge/no charge dead TP issue. I've been running CM9 for a few months and have been pretty happy with it but.....with this recent dead unit issue coupled with a few other glitches I'm starting to think I'm ready to get out of the whole "root" process and just go with a unit that is Android loaded from the start. Don't get me wrong, I have loved playing with the TP and it's been a great little tablet but now I may want to move on....So, here's my questions:
1. Have any of the updates/nightlies/alpha releases cured the charging issue?
2. If I decide to sell, what's the going rate for the TP? Looking at ebay, I see several for between $150-$175.
What are everyone's thoughts?

Convince me not to dump it for anything else..............
 
The charging issue was fixed on June 9th and the fix was merged with nightly builds about a week or so later.

Microphone and headphone issues were fixed in early July. I believe the July 7 nightly would be the earliest build that fixed all these issues (and reportedly was a good build).

Wifi was also updated before July. The main issue now is the camera and it's questionable if it will ever be fixed.
