If you are in the USA, (N.A.?) send the device to PalmDr.com - Palm Doctor. They have repaired many of my Garmin GPS devices, screens, batteries, power buttons. Reasonable cost, and excellent work.

If you still have the button, and it is the joining membrane that has disintegrated you can tape over the hole on the back, fit the button from the inside and glue it with some flexible glue. Eg uhu extreme repair. Careful not to get it on the back of the button - just down the sides. There will be enough movemnet onnet in the button to activate the micro switch on the circuit board.

Then remove the tape when it has set.
Have owned Zumo 550, 660 == Now have Zumo XT2, XT, 595, 590, Headache
Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !
