Is it me the only one who expects a 300$ dedicated piece of technology to last for more than one year? My PRS-600 isn't still 2 yrs old and it's got a nasty blotch of wossname under the touchscreen! Again!

Since it's now out of guarantee, the authorized repair will cost me nearly as much as a newer device. So I would try to mend it myself, if I knew it's possible and (even better), if someone has successfully done it.

Have any of you had any experience removing dust from under the touchscreen of the PRS-600? According to the directions of the Service Manual, in order to reach the screen I would have to disassembly the entire unit, which seems overkill to me (on top of risky, with all those connections threatening to go awry).

Is it really so tricky to reach the screen? Is there any easier way to get rid of the dust? I would appreciate any useful tip here!

Thanks in advance.
