Beware! Don't drop the %^$& thing!
Forget the seemingly impressive "drop test" video. My Kindle was in its protective case, fell from a low counter onto a carpeted floor and was rendered completely inoperable. I had had it for a month. Amazon offered to replace it for half its price, $180.00. I just can't see spending that much more on a device that shatters like an egg. Very disappointed. BEWARE.
