Well, I heard stories about the Kindle's screens having horizontal and/or vertical streaks across the screen after flights; these owners claim that their Kindles were with them so they couldn't have been any impact damage on them. I remembered reading one where an owner was reading his Kindle during flight and horizontal/vertical streaks started appearing when he turn/refreshes pages until a point that reading is not possible anymore; sorry, tried googling for that article but failed.

Anyone here is a frequent air traveller and reads during flight. Does such problems happen to your screen?
