Amen, mommy! The fact that I had it returned to me in no way causes me to expect that if I misplace it again the next person will do the same.
I am much more careful with it now, and even though it is once again without the SS hack (waiting for update 2.5) that enables me to put my info and Reward if Found on it, I have a case that has a window for a business card, as well.
If I found someone's Kindle, I know how to find out who it belongs to, if they've input their personal info into the Settings screen and that'll be the first place I look. If I am unable to locate the owner that way, or through any other identifying marks/features (some put a decal with their personal info on them, others use the same ss hack to do what I do) then I know Amazon knows who the registered owner is, and I for one trust Amazon to do the right thing. Just see my post about noticing the Sun-fade issue 2 months AFTER warranty expiration (my replacement will be here tomorrow.)
With many devices, it can be VERY hard to know who to return it to. But with the Kindle, Amazon should always know.
You know, this gives me another idea...I have the Kindle for iPhone application on my iPod Touch. If I lost it, and someone noticed the app and thought to call Amazon, I wonder if they'd be able to help there, too? There has to be some identifying code that Amazon uses to identify who's iPod/iPhone it is...may have to ask CS this question.
