Hi all,

I know the PRS-T1 is a relatively old device, but I love mine. I use it all the time and don't see the need to upgrade, as it reads books fine. I really want the most slimmed down version possible. I don't need wifi, and I don't want touchscreen, (or the dictionary).

I go camping a fair bit, and whenever I bust out the reader, I tend to get little midgies and whatever attracted to the light reflected off the screen. They walk across it, causing the pages to turn. It's really annoying.

If I root my device, can I turn off this functionality?

I'm just after a bare bones device that I can read a book on, and physically push a button to turn pages.

Any help greatly appreciated.
