You might be on to something. My serial # is BF30145100F8B, which is almost 1000 higher than your device. Plus, I can say this with absolute certainty:
1. I have ZERO e-ink overheating issues. As in, it usually doesn't even feel warm. When people initially started mentioning the fact that the PE runs "hot," I thought it was weird problem that only affected a few units; now, I think it might be a deeper hardware problem.
2. I rarely experience the WSOD, although it has briefly happened a couple of times.
Given that the company was going under, I can see where they might have shipped out units with a known motherboard defect.
