Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. If the one I receive on Monday isn't up to par, I'll probably scratch the idea of a Kindle all together and hold on to my money until something more reliable comes around.

Anyways, I'm curious as to how many other new Kindle 2 owners have received defects. If it's happened to me twice, I'm wondering how high the percentage is. And to those owners out there with perfectly functioning Kindle 2's congrats!
I have had 2 defective kindle 2s thus far. The first one had a recessed previous page button that was *mushy* and the second one had very obvious ghosting (to the extent it impeded reading). I just received my 3rd kindle today and am in the process of checking it out.
