Title: Battery problems
Product review: Owned my Kindle 2 for a year and three months before the battery failed to any longer hold a charge. Warranty expired of course. Amazon will replace same model unit for $135 plus shipping and handling. Engineered obsolescence? Buyer beware.While the hardware is now junk, the service continues. So I read on my iPod using Kindle App. I'm no longer interested in purchasing Kindle texts from Amazon, the iPod isn't good enough reading platform, but continue retrieving free texts and using the email service. The user experience has been good as long as it lasted, but 15 months lifespan for the hardware isn't enough for my $350. I feel burned. So, moving on to another reader now.
