I just left my Kindle on the bus after owning it for less than a month, and can share a few things on this subject.

- The owner will be thrilled to have it back and will probably offer you a reward for its return.

- The owner has probably already contacted Amazon to report it as lost / stolen, in which case, it is now 'blacklisted' and will not be of much use to you. I did this within an hour my losing mine.

- Amazon Customer Service told me that they would ship a postage paid envelope to anyone who contacted them with a lost Kindle and that they would then return it to its owner. Pretty amazing customer service, I must say!

I think you already know what I think you should do....
