To those who are having issues with their Voyages... here are my 2 cents: buy it from Best Buy.
Honestly? I did that with my Touch, PW1, PW2 and now Voyage. Had issues with the PW2, no issues with PW1 and my Voyage screen looks fine.
I understand some pre-ordered but unless Apple, there is no easy way to return a device. Moreover, buying via Best Buy allows you to go home, open, check, drive back, exchange, if applies.
This may not help those who closest BB is 50+ away, but I certainly stop buying Kindles via Amazon long time ago. Chances that it will be defective or with some screen problem is like 50:50.
Last but not least ... no product line is perfect. I learned that when I was working for HP :-) We had a margin of error or crappy inkjet cartridges that were produced. It is virtually impossible to get a 100% perfect lot of any product, that includes iPads, Kindles, PS4s. I actually remember when initial PS4 orders and reviews were from people with bad units. After a month, it was clear that those bad units were only a very small percent of initial production. In other words, some will always "win the lottery" and get some bad units, that's unavoidable.
Personally, I consider a product a crappy one when, even after months, you continue seeing quality issues and majority of people complain about it. Then you can certainly say that it is a design issue, not manufacturing problem. The 1st is not fixable (same year I mean) The second one may or may not be fixable, depending of the problem.
