The mad scientist behind this hack was face with a problem . His belovedAmazon Kindlehad a shattered screen and was all but all in . Distraught , he thought to himself : “ what if I could sacrifice a Sony lector and do and unholy cross species screen transplant ? Yeah , it just might play because the e - ink screens on both devices are nearly identical . ” Sure , ruin a $ 300 equipment to relieve a $ 360 equipment is pretty absurd , but there must have been a Frankenstein eccentric of allure to this hacker that was too skillful to ignore . There are instructions on how to do this yourself , but I do n’t suggest trying it . Like the original Frankenstein , there are some serious hemipteron ensue from the performance . I guess the moral of this fib is that it is best not to recreate gizmo god … and to check on the internets for parts before you blow $ 300 . [ Instructables ]
