yesterday I dropped my reader from the first floor of my house. After the scare, I dared to go down and check on my beloved 505...
The view was horrible- the casing was nicked in a few places and the silver plastic cap -including the power switch- was broken and gone, but -wonder o wonder, it was still showing my book and the display was whole!
Now I have the problem that I need a wire to switch the reader on and of and I wondered whether it would be possible to map the power switch (it sends the reader only into stand by, doesn't it?) to another button?
Anybody an idea whether such a thing is possible?

Thanks,
kaas
