It is now official: after all my trials to fix my beloved reader, I had to realize that the mainboard is toasted...
As I remember the hassle I went through in order to get a spare part, I am offering you my non-fixed reader for free...
What do you get?
1 as-new red prs metal case
1 chewed silver prs metal case ( it survived a multi storey fall!)
1 functioning screen
1 original sony faux-leather protector
1 fried mobo with proof for the lack of my soldering skills
I will be back in germany in the end of july and will be able to send off the reader then, as I am currently in the fiscal year end for my company and can't take days off.
Please do not reply if you just intend to sell the parts on ebay- I will check posts to see whether you indicated a problem earlier on.
If you live in Europe, I will cover shipment if you can not afford it. For the rest of the world, please return it back via paypal AFTER you have the parts...
cheers,
kaas

Seems I have an agreement with wildWillie2. If the situation changes I will reopen the thread.
Thanks for your understanding
