The first one had a tv remote dropped on it. Ok, not the Kindle's fault. I did order a cover, but it hadn't arrived by the time that #3 arrived. I was reading in bed and it dropped from my chest onto the side of the bed (4" drop). There wasn't a mark on the white plastic, but the internals of the screen were smashed. I did take good care of it and IMHO, the last drop that it had should not have broken the screen. I'm in Canada, so the extended warranty is not available here.
