I haven't used the reader for a few days and kept carrying around it in my bag. Today, to my great discontent, I found it failing to work properly. My best guess is that, apart from me, the yesterday's rain is to blame. Not a heavy one at all though

I would extremely appreciate any opinions or suggestions as to how to recover from that plight.

Bests,

PS. forgot to mention: everything else works, yet it goes without saying that it's pretty useless as for now
Whether from water or not, that looks like screen substrate damage which is irretrievable... you might get Sony to repair it (not cheap and not likely) or possibly offer a replacement (later model, likely refurb but again unlikely) doesn't hurt to ask but best option is probably new reader...
