Unless you remove the memory card and manually drop the firmware files onto the card. Much more difficult as you would have to mount the proper partition to do this.
Good luck.

Thanks for the replies.

If by "screen protector" you mean the thin stick on plastic sheet, I don't have one due to a problem on another touchscreen device.
I also tried blasting the screen edge with canned air to no avail, and a visual inspection showed it clear.
I'll report it to Kobo to see if they can suggest something.
It's strange that there was no problem when I used it last.
How difficult is it to open up the Touch ?
Has anyone made a video of that on YouTube ?
