Probably not all that interesting to most people, but I just realized my K1 is two months past its three-year birthday. The battery still is plugging along like, well, the Energizer Bunny. Recharges still last about as long, and I read several hours daily.

Ironically, way back, I purchased an extra battery from Radio Shack, just in case, when Amazon had them back ordered. There it still sits. Well, may need it someday.

Sorry folks, but I am completely contented with this Kindle and have no reason to upgrade. Yet.
