I've had my PRS 500 since Sept 07 (I bought it off E-bay) which has been fine up to a few days ago when it developed a bright rectangular shape about 1''x0.5'' in the lower left hand corner also an horizontal line emanating from it across the page, loading the next page has also slowed down considerably in the horizontal mode. I hold a 12 month guarantee which I notice that it states "Limited Warranty" (US Only) as I live in Thailand no use, however I contacted Sony service centre here in Bangkok who tell me they can fix it but at my expense they have yet to tell me how much but I suspect it will be less than the price of postage back to the states anyone had similar?
