I was using my kindle to read a book. After a few pages in on this particular time, i started seeing the traces of the last page on every new page. It wasn't too annoying and i figured i needed a reset...until I got to a new chapter with a lot of ornate crap around the edge of the screen (a picture, basically), at the beginning of the chapter.

That stuck, and didn't go away. I tried to do a restart, but nothing. now it looks like this wont' go away.

There's been no impact to the kindle ever that i remember, and no opportunity for it to get slammed that i can think of in the last 2 weeks, it's just been on a coffee table and in my hands, which is why i'm confused. I haven't slammed the kindle around at all and it was working just fine in my hands when the problem occurred, totally weird. What is this and can it be fixed?
