Long time reader, but first time poster - wish it wasn't for this reason tho.

I have a Kindle 3 keyboard, that up until the last month has been great. Now it keeps freezing, then after a few minutes does a hard reboot. It also freezes when it is on the screensaver and won't wake up right away. I called amazon and they had me do a factory reset - which I did again after - and it hasn't helped. They said it is just out of warranty and the best they will offer is a cheaper repair - $70. I can't swing that right now so I just wanted to see if anyone here had any ideas before I give up on it.

Thanks
