I bought a Kindle 3 last October and the screen broke after a few weeks. Sent it back, got a new one and a case to protect the screen. Just over a month ago the same thing happened - screen freezes and gradually lines start appearing. I got a new one which worked fine for a few weeks, until the other day I noticed the screen had broken again in the same way.
I've dropped my iPhone many times on hard surfaces and it's barely been scratched, yet my Kindle has been handled with much more care and had its own case and it seems to fail anyway. Is this a common problem with Kindles or have I just been unlucky?
My 1 year warranty will probably run out in a couple of days so I'm worried it won't be replaced, or that if it is replaced, the next time something goes wrong I have no option but to buy a different brand of e-reader. Really not happy
