I'm going to cut open the bottom section, see if the USB can still be repaired. The damaged area is along the bottom left so I've lost all the shortcut buttons. In pageflow mode, I can actually view anything that gets cut off by the damaged area. So the DR is still strangely useable, if I can get power going back into the thing.
However, I'm pretty much over it. I'd get another e-Ink device. This screen size or possibly bigger, if I can get one with a smaller bezel around the display. I barely used the writing functions of the iRex, however that was because of their poor calibration, not because I didn't want to use them, so I'd have to see if I were to ever want another that I could use to write on.
