Shortly after buying my k79, I was reading in a restaurant while traveling. When I visited the rest room, I slipped the kindle inside a cloth napkin. When I returned to my table, I grabbed the napkin and flung the k79 face down onto a stone floor. My first thought was that I was glad I only paid $79 for it. I was surprised to discover that it survived.
