However I am currently on a road trip. The Kindle was in a leather case and inside a padded pocket of my Apple laptop computer case. On the third evening the Kindle was non responsive, unusual lines on the screen. Amazon support says the signs indicate screen impact destroy which is not covered by warranty. The case was not dropped nor was anything stacked on it.

First, everything about the Kindle is true. Its readability and convenience is outstanding. I have read several books if the last few weeks because of its features. I was five times an avid reader but increasing age has made printed books more of a challenge, but the Kindle with its varying font size and light weight has made reading fun again.

Amazon will replace for $200 and return of the failed unit, but I am now concerned about its apparent fragility and Amazon's failure of responsibility for an expensive gizmo.

The dramatic video of the Kindle being dropped 30 inches is now suspicious.
