Question Inkpad X - mechanical damage or swollen battery?
Hi! My Inkpad X developed consciousness and started turning pages, navigating menus, etc. by its own. I noticed that there are these cracks on the back. Do you think it may be swollen battery or maybe I mishandled it somehow? Although I try to be gentle with it. Is it worth trying to RMA it?

RMA'd it. They replaced the casing and the screen. It works now. No mention of battery replacement so I don't know what the real issue was.

FWIW, it looks swollen so I think battery issue.
