Text doubling
I accidentally dropped my 505 in its case from a height of about 3 1/2 feet on Monday and the right half of the screen is darker with the text as normal plus a lighter version about 1/16 of an inch off to the right, making it look like your eyes couldn't focus. Frustrated as all get out, I put it back in its case and dropped it facing the opposite way on the table and it actually fixed it...for a day. Yesterday it started doing it again but on the other side. I cannot get it to go away now. I also noticed that the silver plate at the top, that the switch is in, is only attached on the right side. I can pull it up enough that the switch no longer works. In a case, it is in all the way though. I also noticed that if I hit a page number and then back out, it fixes it somewhat but it happens again when I turn the page.
Advice? Is it fixable? Am I just going to have to purchase a new Reader (or other ebook device)? I really don't want any of the current Sonys if I have to replace it so I am looking at the Nook WiFi as a possible.
