Hi!

I have a Sony PRS-600, that has worked nicely for a rather long time. But a few days ago, it just froze. I was reading an epub book, and the screen just froze, and has stayed that way since then. Displaying the text. I get no reaction whatsoever whichever button I press. I cannot turn it off. I've tried the Reset button on the bottom, pressing for a minute or more with the pin in the stylus - no reaction.

So I thought, let the battery run dry and then it'll shutdown and I can reboot. But still, after 4 days, it keeps showing the same page.

The only reaction I get is if I plug in the USB-cable to the computer, the red light goes on, indicating that it charges the battery. But the computer does not react, I mean, it does not identify the reader as a USB device at all, does not even give any error msgs (running Linux, I've checked the syslog - nothing).

Any ideas at all what I can do with it (excpet use it as a mousepad....)?

Best,

Magnus L
