Cool not limited to the graphite

I contacted Amazon, they called me straight back at 23;00 on a Sunday and were very polite' though the chap said he had never heard of this happening, hmmmmm
I am now waiting for a replacement (2 days), I'll post when I get the new one and let you all know how the replacement is and if the service is good.
I do hope that this is a batch thing, I have grown very fond of my Kindle and would really hate for this to keep happening.

that's not limited to the graphite model. i have a friend who got a white kindle 3 for christmas and it has developed those same cracks starting in both of the lower screen corners. i'm making an assumption when i say that i believe that the cracks are related to when the device was made and not the color.
