Last week, I accidentally cracked the eInk display of my beloved Sony Reader PRS-505 and I am crushed. While I am devoted, if the repair cost of swapping/replacing the screen is much more than USD $99 I will abandon the Sony Reader platform for the $299 Amazon Kindle, which has Internet access and WhisperNet access. So, I am selfishly writing this post, hoping that Sony’s social media team might be willing and able to help me out. While they do have a replacement program for $90, it does not include screen breakages. I am very sad as I was halfway through reading Journal of a Novel, a lovely book by John Steinbeck, recommended to me by Minh Le and purchased for money on the Sony Reader online book store. I hope Sony is generous, at the end of the day — to me and to everyone.
