You would think a pro-active Amazon would replace the the Kindle just so they could study the bricked one to see what went wrong in an attempt to insure that it didn't happen again.
Correlation does not equal causation. If a Jehovah's Witness knocks on my door and my Kindle quits working I wouldn't assume they're connected. So far, two people have had two distinctly different problems and some think it's obviously because of the update. What nonsense.

I would talk to customer service before I came here to whine and ignore the advice that you start by demanding a new Kindle.
