Oh big question. Is the HDX interfaced suppose to be charcoal gray? Even the night theme on the Kindle is charcoal gray and not black?!? Seeing my other was bad I don't what color the UI really is I think I am going to start a thread.

I looked closely at my HDX and the background IS charcoal grey while the frame is deep black. I never noticed it before. It doesn't bother me.
However, it should not be heating up and there should not be a scratch on the back. Send it back for another replacement. Over heating could be a sign of a defective battery. Several years ago some notebook batteries exploded. You don't want to run that risk.
A lot of these "problems" on all the units are probably noticeable by a very few folks with most just ignoring them.
Plus, a lot of problems may be related to users simply not having enough knowledge of how to use Calibre properly and then blaming the problems on the units.
If Calibre is like MediaMonkey, then it must have a steep learning curve which most folks never master unless they spend a huge amount of time learning it.
With MediaMonkey, I had to go to their forum to find out how to move my data from my Win 7 PC to my Win 8 PC. I never knew how to do it. Only moderators there had the proper knowledge.
Calibre is really for eBook collectors like MediaMonkey is for song collectors. Just reading eBooks purchased from Amazon does not require any special knowledge and no special auxiliary programs.
