Last night when I wanted to read, I turned on my Reader and out of nowhere instantly a garbled-looking part of the display appeared on the top right corner. It looks as if the screen is physically broken but it is fine as I have always treated the device like some kind of holy grail. The rest of the display works but of course this makes it unusable to me. See the pictures for more details.

Any suggestions?

I'm going to contact Sony but I don't think they will repair the unit as I bought it in the US and there is still no german model available. Perhaps there is anyone from Sony (or someone else) roaming this forum who could help me with this?
