Then I decided to have a quiet read, only to discover that the screen controller on my Sony 505 is faulty. There's a small, perfectly rectangular blank area on the top right of the screen. I've tried recharging, also soft and hard resets with no result.
It's been sitting on a sideboard with nothing else in the vicinity, and I definitely haven't dropped it or treated it roughly.
My partner bought me the device for Christmas, so it's only eight months old. He didn't keep the receipt but I've got his credit card statement, so it's off to Waterstone's in the morning. I doubt whether I'll get much joy from them, but it's worth a try.

Sorry to read about your technological woes Patricia.
Were Waterstone's any help today?
