I accidentally dropped my PRS500 last night. The three buttons on the left (page fwd and bkwd, size) are all stuck off-center and depressed. At first, the reader wouldn't respond to any key presses except to change orientation between horizontal and vertical.

Today, everything except the three left buttons and the #1 button are working. Is there a way to take off the side and pop the buttons back into the right place? Reading at that tiny 6 pt font size really strains my eyes!
