It's like the gremlins just decide when to attack or something.
Something very similar happened to mine. I dropped my Wi-Fi KK face down on a linoleum-covered floor. Although it was in a cover, it flipped OPEN on the way down. SMACK! I picked it up, expecting a mess. It looked fine. I used it with no problem at all. Three months later, I opened it and discovered the tell-tale sign of the cracked screen..a mangled screensaver that wouldn't go away. It hadn't had any hits since I had dropped it three months earlier. Go figure.
