I haven't seen anyone mention that Amazon (US) are now offering 2-Year Warranty and Accident Protection on Kindles, at prices from $25 to $45 for every Kindle model, new and old.

In the UK, the insurance for the new low-end Kindle also includes theft coverage, and is available for £22. For Keyboard Kindles, 3-year insurance (without theft coverage) is available, for £25/£30.

I suspect this means that in future it will not be quite so easy to get a replacement Kindle if your screen breaks if you don't have this insurance.

Unless I was oblivious to this, and Amazon have always offered various insurance schemes for Kindles?
