I never realized how messy trees are until I lived in a house in an oak and hickory forest for a few years. The deck used to look like it was covered with yellow snow when the oak trees were dropping pollen. In the fall the squirrels would cut the clusters of acorns down and litter the whole yard. Then there were the constantly falling twigs and branches, and of course the leaves.
Since there aren't any moving parts in a kindle I don't think the little bit of pollen that falls on it while you're sitting there holding it would do any damage, but a zip lock bag will absolutely guarantee a positive outcome.
