What's your "old" Kindle?
According to his profile info, the Kindle DX.

My personal thoughts on the matter would be not to bother -- I have been carrying around my Kindle Touch everywhere, for a long time now, and it's still good. I don't expect anything to happen, either. But I appreciate that other people may feel less confident for their particular usage scenarios.

A better idea would be to upgrade to the PW, just to have a new ereader. The touchscreen experience is a vast improvement over the Keyboard/DX/Basic Kindles, and you DO want one!

YOU WANT IT, YOU WANT IT!!

Think about it, you can then use your old kindle as a kick around device, guilt-free!
*YOU WANT IT!*

Sorry about that.
