I think you're both right. I'm going to call Kindle Customer Service on Monday - always seems best to call Amazon during business hours. I really don't want to talk to somebody in India or wherever they're outsourcing weekend calls to now.

I figure if the screen on the replacement isn't as good, it'll just mean I make another phone call. I can't help it if I have a telephone-phobia . . . better to deal with that than a Kindle I'm not happy with.

I don't 'need' 3G, and I've talked myself out of wanting it (almost). I just always stay in "be prepared" mode, and a free access to the internet if the power grid went down would be a nice prep feature. I have that with my DXG, but am thinking of selling it since it's sitting in a corner feeling unloved right now since I've not used it since I got my K3.

Then again, I'm one of those people who second guesses myself a lot, and always seems to manage to do the wrong thing, if there is a wrong thing available to be done.

I do think I'd be better off to go ahead and exchange this K3, though - the more I wiggle that little button, the more unhappy I am with it since obviously the other 3 don't wiggle at all!
