Got PRS-700 by mistake...should I send it back?
Hi,

I ordered a PRS-505 (after 2 failed attempts to buy one, so by now I'm at the end of my rope trying to get one - it's not available in my country).

Anyway, I finally had my package delivered and they've sent me a PRS-700 by mistake. I have read (mainly on here) that the touchscreen surface effectively ruins the e-ink screen. Is this true? (I don't want to open the package until I've heard back from the seller as to their returns policy).

I realise I got the PRS-700 relatively cheap (though still not cheap), and I really wanted this item in time for some travelling in a week (getting a replacement will mean I have to wait another month probablyto get my device, and I've been trying to get one since early February already).

So is the PRS-700 worth keeping or should I frustrate myself even more by demanding a replacement PRS-505 and waiting several weeks to send this one back and get the new one delivered?

I'm annoyed
