I can understand how disenfranchizing it is to learn that something you've invested your energy and time into doesn't work out the way you want it to. Rather than focus on the device and its failures (because I'm sure there is a way, either with modifications or another CD, that it could work), how about bringing your attention on the communication breakdown that happened. I get the feeling that caused more issues internally for you than the device not working did. Much of this will shape how you both move on into the future of your relationship, especially where you'll both be together rather than separated by a distance. Get a clear understanding of how it made you feel when he finally told you it wasn't working, after giving you the impression that all was well. What were your reactions? (angry, sad, disappointed) Why did you feel that way? Why did he wait so long to tell you? Or did he? Had he let on that he was having issues but it just wasn't clear? More importantly, how are you going to address these communication issues so that you don't wind up with a repeat? Do you encourage him to be transparent in his thoughts and feelings, and do you compel him to divulge to you what's going on in his head? Has there been an environment created where that can happen and where he can say what's on his mind without fear of judgement and/or punishment?
