Any tips?
From my personal experience my tip would be to not try to disconnect the battery. When my PRS-350 had a meltdown I tried everything and as a last resort tried to disconnect the battery (it didn't help). It turned out that even after disconnecting the battery it was impossible to remove the battery since there was some strong adhesive holding it in place. Even if I was able to remove the battery the price of a replacement battery ($30) was too high. Luckily, my local Sony Outlet was having a clearance sale at the time and I was able to buy my Sony PRS T-1 for $50.
