Screen problems with the Amazon Kindle?
Bought a Kindle 2 around Feb last year, never dropped or damaged it but random lines and discolorations on the screen have started to appear. I tried restarting it and rebooting it… no luck. They stay there even when the kindle is turned off. Will Amazon send me a new one if I complain and send it back in?
Have you tried the suggestions in “Screen Issues” here:

Otherwise, just try to contact Amazon to see if they can give you a replacement, or a better price to get a new Kindle device to replace the original one…
