I've read stories about over-tightened screws during assembly and the temperature-change theory, no idea if they are true. No idea if my friend was right or not.

But from what I did read, that damage looks very much caused by pressure in a small point.

Usually cracks caused in luggage are large splits which segment the screen into two or three. this is more of a crush.

if you want to fix, check trademe for similar items: www.trademe.co.nz or if you don't want to spend $75 look for a PSP that was bricked by a failed flash or doesn't read disks. generally people put them up cheap like RROD 360's. I buy the 360's for parts or resale after fixing them.

cheers

will keep that in mind
