They seem less irritating than on the first Kindle but I suppose that is because the screen is not so bright. I am sending this one back.
Both are from the 302 batch and the replacement was new not return. |
What a shame

I am not going to try for another replacement. My boyfriend says he will keep the original Kindle. It was supposed to be mine and he wanted to try it out and see if we would buy a second one for him, but he likes it a lot and doesn't mind the screen so much. Maybe he is just too lazy to keep replacing it.
I am not sure if I am going to buy another one for myself.

I remember you saying you had extra shipping costs because of your location, so it might be best if you wait for PW2 to come out, hopefully they'll have consistently good screens by then (or sent Jeff Bezos a nice email telling him how disappointed you are with the quality of the PW - maybe they'll send you a good one
)
