Where to find a joystick for PRS500?
Hello,
Could someone advice me where I could find a little joystick (below the reader's screen, at the right) for Sony PRS-500 reader? Seems like it is broken now Or could it be replaced with something?

Thanks in advance!

Going by the service manual, you need the part "Key top (2)". Sony part number is 266191101. ServicePLUS lists it for $13.24 but no stock. UED also lists no stock, but I guess you could try ordering anyway.
Another option is finding a broken unit.

Thanks for the reply, igorsk!
But I think paying 13 bucks (without shipping) is too high for the "item" i'm not using Reader just not looking good without it
