I've broken a key!!

Oops.. so I was sat today talking to friends waiting for a reply via text and had my phone in my hand with it slid out and I I was just playing with the keys with the end of my nails and caught my nail on the right softkey button. (the one that'd open Contacts) and now its kind of poking up at an angle and won't go back down! Tried to take photos of it but the macro on my camera isn't too good!

Any ideas what I can do? I never use this button so if there's a fix for it that'll keep it down but not as usable as the other keys, it'll do. It doesn't catch when I close the slide, but its annoying me loads!
I dont want to use my insurance because it'll just mean me not having a phone for ages, etc.

some super glue perhaps?

I am using my pure with a Ps3 bluetooth keypad.It is really cool.
You'd have too see it .I will post pic later.I had a fuze and I miss the hardware keyboard.also you can dial the phone remotely and also use bt earpeice at the same time.I am using duttys holy grail roms they are excellent.The keypad looks like something batman would own.they sell them everywhere.

How do you pair this with a window mobile phone???

I'd like to get the IGo Stowaway for my Pure. It's only $24-$30 right now.

[INFO] Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse Test [vid]

first off, sorry for the poor video quality: already invested in a new digicam, but it's coming from japan, so i should have it in a couple weeks
so... i went ahead and tested out the bt mouse and keyboard connectivity on the transformer...
both peripherals simply work and paired without any issues... the scrolling on the mouse is capable throughout the whole ui and most relevant apps such as polaris and dolphin browser... the right click acts as the "back" command as it should...
not much to say about the keyboard besides the fact that since it gets recognized as a keyboard and not just a "generic input device," the sw keyboard gets disabled [just like if you were to pair the device with ASUS' own keyboard dock]...
ps- i searched for "brooms" on amazon :^]

A500 USB port and ps2 keyboard?

I have a funny setup - love it, actually... I am using a A200 right now and as luck would have it, my 20+ year old buckling spring IBM tank PS2 keyboard works perfectly via the active ps2/usb adapter into the USB port, right out of the box. I haven't seen many tablets with full sized USB ports, but I do see the A500 has it and I assume it should also drive the usb adapter since the A200 does fine. Can anyone confirm that? I dig being able to use my ancient mechanical clicky key keyboard with a newer tab - but would like a little more hot speced tab.

I can confirm my power button works like the day I first got the phone!! (Keyboard buttons seem to have nicer feedback too!)
Ebay link to the part (ships from Florida):
http://www.ebay.com/itm/290819579517?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Video with the teardown of the Epic (and reassembly is just the teardown backwards, **MAKE SURE NOT TO LOSE ANYTHING**)
Hope this is a great help to all of you who have been plagued by the dreaded half working or completely inoperable power button. Cheers!!

I fixed the video link and have a picture of the part from the ebay page too.
