Be careful with this! Do an image search on google for "kindle broken screen" and you'll see all kinds of pictures of Kindles with screens that have broken substrates. One common cause of this is a Kindle being tossed in a backpack with out any protection--this happens by other items in the backpack putting pressure on the Kindle and tweaking the screen. Sometimes this happens and you won't know it for a few days--until one day you turn your Kindle on to see a damaged screen. (I think of it like a rock chip hitting your windshield--you might not notice it until all of the sudden the crack starts to spread across your whole windshield.)
