Last evening, I was sitting at the kitchen table reading, and my daughter said, "Mom, what's wrong with your Kindle?" I looked at it and it appears that the upper right corner has "opened up" or separated. The plastic looks a little bent or wavy. I have no idea how this could have happened! I have not dropped my Kindle. It travels from here to there in my purse, spends the night next to my bed and is basically within a hand's reach from me at all times.
Do you think this is worth a CS call? Right now, it doesn't seem to be affecting my Kindle's performance in any way. The opening does come down to the volume button, but the volume still works (I just tested it on some text-to-speech).
If I call CS, will they give me a new one? But then I worry about getting one with fading text, having to deal with the licenses on my books, getting a new skin, etc. I am happy with this Kindle, but at he same time, I don't want the back to fall off!
Opinions wanted. Help!
