Your odds are incorrect. Some 1 star reviews are for the PW not having audio, slow shipping, "ads" in cover view, etc.

Plus it's been rumored that Amazon has shipped close to 1 million PWs so far. Random reviews by 837 purchasers can in no way be used to set odds as to whether you'll get a "good" replacement.
