3. Win.
4. Send, under warranty, back to Amazon.
5. Revel in *NEW* K2!
Given that I've done this TWICE in the last month - both times getting the Kindle 2 for less than $50, I'd say this makes sense. (My second replacement is on it's way - again, a free repair under the existing warranty. Mom gets it as soon as it arrives!)
