Sorry if it does not fit here, but someone else had similar problems above.
I saw a damaged Aura, which the user had "pressed" with something in his bag, and now the e-reader only displays what is attached, strips on the cover of the last book read.
The user said it does not turn on.
Would it be worth trying to repair it or anything? A broken sd card maybe? Or this is definately the e-ink display?
