I just joined this forum, but I haven't been able to figure out how to post until I came to the end of this thread. Sorry, but my problem is unrelated to the foregoing. My problem is I'm on vacation in Switzerland (from the US), and I brought my fairly new Kindle -- which suddenly won't turn on! It was fully charged, and what happened was that some screen suddenly appeared that asked where I wanted to go to. I must have hit some key to bring up this note, but I couldn't get out of it. I gave up, and turned the Kindle off -- the way I do when my computer gets locked and I can't get it moving. Now when I try to turn it on, the green light flashes, but IT WON'T TURN ON! I can't contact Amazon, because I don't remember my password -- which is written down at home. Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to wait two weeks to fix it when I get home.
