Well it finaly happened. I switched on my PRS 505 and the top section of the screen is damaged. There is a big rectangular chunk missing. It looks like the eInk Substrate is damaged (based on other posts I have read).

I originaly bought it from America so I can't take it back to a shop (I am in the UK), and its probably not worth repairing.

So, do I buy a Sony Reader Pocket ( I like the look of it, but I dont like the fact it only comes in a slip case), do I just continue reading on my iPod Touch, or do I look at some of the other devices on the market.
