No luck; the K3 still won't boot. This narrows down the possibilities:
- my power switch/battery/charging port/other internal device is broken
- the replacement Kindle I bought also was unable to boot (though, it was listed as in a working condition)
- the casing of my Kindle somehow spreads this bizarre malfunction
- the Kindle was a hallucination all along
Basically, what I get is the orange light turning on when plugged in and turning off when unplugged. I've tried holding the switch for 20, 30, 40 seconds. Still nothing. The "DON'T PANIC" screensaver will be there to haunt me forever. I swear, every piece of technology I get my hands on is, or becomes, cursed in one way or another...

I feel like I should stop buying junk from that thrift store, but I know that'll never happen.
