My E115 has had such heavy use, without a screen protector, that the area I use the stylus on is now badly scratched. Is there a way that the screen can be replaced? I can't immediately see how to lift the front off to replace the screen, nor where to purchase a new screen from, so I suspect I can't, but can someone confirm it for me. Please note that I live in New Zealand so giving the machine to a Casio shop to fix is not an option (at least that I can see). Thank you in advance.
Actually you don't need anytools at all except a very good quality Jewellers's #1 Phillips screw driver - "Stanley" matches perfectly. Once you have the 4 screws removed hold firmly & press the back inwards between the esc key & the IR lens. Once this tab is released the rest will come off just by jiggling a bit. Gently lift the back off like opening a book. It should come out effortlessly. Don't use any undue force or any other tools to pry open the back.
I believe if you are hardy with this sort of thing you can order a new touch pad from Global Products or www.pacparts.com. The e-115 , e125 and others all the same. Mine is coming from Global now item # 10003145 @ $28.00 I believe. I will know more when mine arrives. The case is not to hard to crack open just be careful. Once the case is open and motherboard freed turn the mb. over from case. The touch pad removes very easily one ribbon connector and one tape. Tear down pictures @ www.hi-pda.com/usercomment/001215/1.jpg. Be careful to have static band or discharge don't touch except edges and plastic of compact flash. It will take a little work but it is the cheap way. Dick
