image Just the other day, we were fretting that tech and e-bookdom lack enough women. Down with the stereotypes.

Now a question for male readers. What if your little sister accidentally stepped on your Kindle and smashed its screen? Could you do a Frankenstein act and stick in a replacement screen from an old Sony Reader PRS-500?

imageNo? Well, Blake Bevin could, and despite what some might think, she’s a, yes, "Miss" unless someone is doing some photo-switching.

Via Instructables, here is the how-to, and here’s Miss Bevin’s page. I’m assuming that’s what blakebevin’s last name is.

Question: How cheaply can you buy a used PRS-500 for? They’re going for as little as $150 on eBay. A screen source? (Spotted in MR.)
