At this point the only options appear to be:
1: Take amazons offer, or call back and complain even more, trying to get a full replacements.
2: If you bought the kindle with a credit card, call your company and ask if they have an extended warranty program ( I know mine offer double warranty up to 2 years [ 6 months becomes 1 year, 1 year becomes 2 years and thats the max ] ), and see if you are in that timeframe.
3: Open the case of the kindle and perform electronic surgery.

Keeping in mind that it could have been just bad timing, and something else may have broken while you did the update.

The actual logic board replacement would be at 3:20, you wouldn't need the rest of the video.
Edit: Holy crap there are a lot of cables hooked into the logic board on the Voyage. |
Thank you Mate, that's really helpful!
