*sigh*
I took it to a friend who has helped me do some delicate glue-working in the past to see if he thought it would be feasible to try putting some glue on the end of a needle.
For reasons unclear to me, after advising that the button was splitting in half, he then decided to start aggressively pushing the button on both sides of the fracture, which has now reinforced the split and pushed half of the broken plastic into the device. Suffice to say, I won't be taking it to him in the future.
The right half still seems to give some resistance when I push it, so I'm assuming this is the half that is glued on and over the sensor. I'm just not sure what I can do at this point to prevent it from getting any worse.
The device otherwise still works well, and I travel with it all the time, so it would be a huge shame to have to consign it to a drawer because of the loss of 5 cents worth of rubber.
