I'd expect that the actual failure rate would be in the order of .01% or less (one failure in every 10,000 units).

And be failure rate, I mean failure due to manufacturing or parts defects, not use.
But the word was "problem", not "failure". Most of the problems posted here are less "my unit completely died", and more "how do I strip this embedded font" or "can I tweak my margins" or "I broke my screen" or "my device won't charge/I changed the cable and it's working now", or "kepubs sh*t me", that sort of thing.
