I'm relucant to disagree with HarryT, but I've taken a close look at the image you posted, and normally with broken substrate, the break lines look like any other broken glass - smooth, but not exactly straight, and not exactly aligned along the screen.
I think this looks more like a controller problem. Assuming, of course, that you've tried leaving it on charge overnight first.
I'd email Bookeen with this screen shot and see what they say. If it's stlll in warranty, it should be covered if I'm right.

Tried reflashing the memory, nothing doing. It has not been dropped, has always been in the case and there is absolutely no visible sign of damage. I mean, I pick it up, read and then put it down again. How can it be damaged? If these things are that fragile, perhaps it's time to get back to the drawing board. Is it really the screen or could it be the processor, etc? Any ideas to get this thing working again?
