Ok, so my first K2 was replaced because one of the buttons was not working properly, there was a gap between the front and back and the screen faded in bright light. Now yesterday my new K2 which is in a silicone case AND a carry case dropped from a height of about 2 feet onto a chair and the screen goes. The top half of the screen saver picture showed on the bottom half of the screen and the top half was all lines and black spots.

I called Amazon and my 2nd replacement should be in today, now is it just me having bad luck with these or will a tiny drop like that break the kindle? If so I may have to return this and just get my money back, which would make be VERY sad.
