I do not know about the Clie T615c, but if it is just a normal ribbon cable
connector then those types of connectors on the motherboard usually have a
top bit that can pull up and push down. When the outside of the connector is
pulled up this allows ribbon cables to be inserted and removed. When the
outside is pushed down (towards the board) this locks the ribbon cable in
place. As I said I do not know about the Clie T615c but it may be worth a
try.
