Title: Kindle 2 Screen went blank
Product review: I recently bought the Kindle 2 for my grandmother who loves to read but can no longer get out of the house to pick up books. I thought this would be an awesome gift for her since I have the Kindle 1 and LOVE it. Well I gave it to her this past Sat. We registered it and she was looking at it and it fell off her lap onto the carpet and the screen went blank and now it won't start up. Now Amazon is stating that the warranty does not cover damages. HOWEVER it was only dropped at most 2 feet from the couch to the carpet. I was given the option to pay another $200.00 to buy a refurbished Kindle 2... Which means that I now will be paying $570.00 for a used Kindle 2.I am VERY disappointed in Amazon. My grandmother didn't even purchase 1 book on this device and now we are out $270.00
