no luck 
cant be replaced. It was brand new! And i tried everything and even called back 3 more times to connect to different representatives
im telling you guys - this is NOT a crack
its a leak
its as though the the liquid (eink) managed to seep out. if i wiggle it left and right (which ive been doing now) you can see the eink move on different parts of the screen as well
its surprising no one has encountered this yet |
Sorry you had no luck with Amazon.
You could be right about the leak, but I certainly don't know enough about the technology to say whether or not the "ink" in the eInk capsules can actually leak out, or if so many of them could burst at once to form the pattern on your Kindle screen without some sort of traumatic impact having caused them to burst! To me, it looks like a screen that was damaged by some sort of impact and apparently Amazon came to the same conclusion.
