And of course you do need a different cover (if you want to use one).

But what annoys me a lot is that on the first day after some page leafing the brand new kindle crashed.
Exactly the problem why I want to get a new device for.

I use big font size due to my eyesight and of course the bigger the font size the more often you must turn pages.
It might be too much for the device .. or there is some other reason.

This is the nth generation of ebook readers Amazon is putting out and they are not able or willing to solve the (most likely known) problems?
Pfff ..
Most likely, as HarryT points out, there is some other reason.

Here is another hint:
"I use a big font size ..."
Some fonts require a significant amount of time to compute (they are computed, not copied).

There is a sub-forum here, the "Kindle Developers" forum where technical folks hang out.

In the search function of the main display (home page), enter:
;dm
the semi-colon is part of the command.

That will result in four new documents appearing.
Go to the sub-forum, post about this problem (or reference your above post with a link) and include the document with 'system' in its name as an attachment.
Somebody there (most likely me) will read the document and let you know what is happening and if you have a defective device.

Note: To add an attachment to a post, you need to use what is called the 'Advanced' editor. (the go-advanced button below the text entry box).
