This is concerning a Kindle 3 WIFI device.

My kindle 3's keyboard recently behave erratically as if the left cursor button is pressed indefinitely. Other keypress is also behaving strangely; but I think the most severe symptom is that of the left key. I not not remember what I specifically did to cause this problem. I tucked it in a bag and when I took it at home, it behaved this way. I found that, oftentimes, the infinite left key press would eventually stop. But pressing the body just above the keyboard rows would cause this press to happen again.

Still working so far:
- dropbear works (I installed usbnet + dropbear hack long time ago)
- what worked? Power button worked. But reaction time is extremely long now. Perhaps due to CPU 100% busy caused by apparent "left" key presses.
- screen/display: no issue

What not working:
- Navigation is messed up
- Other keys became rather unresponsive

Basically the device became useless. Can this device be saved? Has anyone experienced a similar problem? If so, what do you do to fix it? Any suggestion for troubleshooting is welcome.
