external control?

Hi,
Got an old kobo touch, the touch screen no longer works even after a factory reset. I wonder if there is something I can do like an external control so it is still usable. It still powers up fine just doesnt respond to touch.

Thanks!

Even that would not be able to replace the touchscreen entirely, like ... fine control for book selection? the confirmation dialog when you want to connect USB? If that already doesn't work you'd have to remove the internal SD card (if the touch has any) just to install a mod...

If the touch screen can not be fixed, it might be time for a new reader.
