looking for a sony 500 screen that is not cracked to replace the semi-working but unreadable unit!

If you purchase a used working 500, then you'll have replacement parts minus the screen and even including an extra battery.

But one good place to have a look is eBay.

Hi eshord_tyeblen:

Sorry for the cracked screen.

I just want to echo what Jon said: Find a used Sony - keep looking often, as people are always

upgrading
going with the latest fad
becoming disenchanted with this or that
getting back to the basics
selling because (s)he has too many units

I just sold two of my PRS-500s here, so I fall under that last listing.

Again, I'm sorry for the accident that resulted in your Reader getting a cracked screen, but I'm confident you'll soon find a replacement unit here and then you'll have your older unit as a source for parts.

I just saw that a member named tribble has a "broken Sony 500." I don't know what is broken. You might want to look him up and make an enquiry.

How easy is it to replace the screen in a PRS-500? Can it be done without specialised tools?
