Thanks for all the congrats on getting my k back. I got a call, out of the blue, on Monday. Someone tried to sell my K to a guy (Michael) for $200. I had taped a business card on the inside of the Oberon cover, and on the back of the kindle. The thief (guess I can't really call him a thief) removed the card from the cover, but didn't bother to take the k out of the case. Michael did, and said the k was lost, and he was going to return it. The thief said he found it, he would return it. Michael didn't think that was likely, and kept it and called me. I'm sure there is more to the story (he was a teacher, maybe a student tried to sell it to him), but I was just so happy. Not so much for getting the k back, but to have my faith in human nature restored. I offerred to sell it to him for $50 (I would give him 2 charges, the usb, an extra battery). He decided he didn't want an ereader. I brought it home, plugged in the charger, and my 50 pages of books came right up. I hate to say, at that moment, my love for my k2 went out the window. Of course, it came back when I read in bed last night, and clipped the purple light directly on my k2.
