If you don't want a Kindle, then by all means... yes, cancel your order.

I just picked my Kindle up, and nothing rattled!
I'm also having the experience you mention here. Can anyone else confirm whether they have these experiences?

I've had absolutely no problems from my new K3. Haven't had any hiccups of any kind. I've banged on it for the last 3 weeks and it works perfectly.

I was worried about the reported problems before my K3 arrived.

I've had it for a week - transferred over 100 books on it from my Sony - allowed it to index overnight, updated the firmware when it was available and have not had a single problem at any stage.

It doesn't rattle, it hasn't fallen apart and it hasn't caused me to get arrested for unlawful wifi access.

It does do a rather good job of allowing me to read e-books.

Well, as one of those persons with the problems, who Amazon isn't helping, or even acknowledging, other than just giving me a copy and pasted reply that says to call customer service, I would say cancel your order.

And let me add, my problems with it (not being able to read outside any more) didn't show up for 2 weeks. So don't get cocky, though of you that don't have them. You just might not have them yet.

I'm assuming (yea, I know) that you are within the 30 day warranty, why don't you just return it and get something else? That way you can be happy again. No one is getting cocky, a comment was made that someone has not heard of anyone without significant problems (is that a triple negative? ) and others are chiming in saying that they aren't having any significant problems.

Let me be one more in the - working fine for me, no problems!
