thank you for your help. My ereader is now working correctly with 2.0.0B

This is how I did it.

1: Press screen refresh button and reset button (needs paper clip) at the same time, and keep pressing screen refresh button so that it is still pressed as the ereader reboots.

The ereader will reboot with a robot lying on it's back, stomach door open and an exclamation mark.

2: Press just the reset button (needs paper clip).

The ereader now restarted, and the screen is working. This is not a factory reset because my wifi settings are still there.

However my touch screen now works.

3: Because my touch screen works I can now do Settings->Backup&Reset->Reset eReader

Now I have a new eReader and I have to select language, reset time zone, reinstall apps etc.

Thanks.

By the way I did do a factory reset before installing 2.0.0B firmware, but the touch screen still messed up. Basically only the left 40% of the screen was detecting touch. However it is possible to recover by using the proceedure above so nothing to worry about.
