Understand as well that on a typical work day with my K3 I'm on wifi at least 20 out of 24 hours (with router at home and at work that K3 connects to).

Thanks!
If this is the case you should just call Kindle CS and ask them for a replacement. The other logical answer is that it's faulty. You don't need to "prove" this to Amazon, you just tell them what's happening. Chances are they'll overnight one to you (depending on which country you're in).
