Thanks for your replies.
Sisteczko, I know what you mean about the disappointing fragility of these screens. It's the second one I've had break (also broke a Kindle DX packed in my luggage while travelling). They really seem to be much more fragile than your average laptop and or smartphone. I wonder if they'll become more rugged with the flexible eink display that I think Sony has developed.
Iampiti, I actually bought it used from marktplaats in the Netherlands. It was in new condition, but I'm not sure which seller they got it from. Booxtor's store seems like a good choice though, so maybe I'll send him a pm and ask if he thinks it's a broken screen or something else and whether he'd consider fixing it.
Thanks again for your feedback!
