If you would do it yourself you would probably just save the shipping cost of your device to the maintenance office.

If I found a screen somewhere, is it absolutely impossible to replace myself? What do the voltage adjustments involve? I am pretty technologically savvy... I am in the US and if screens are interchangeable, I think I can get a 9.7" screen (e.g., for Kindle) relatively affordably compared to sending the ereader abroad. Please let me know, thanks!
