I don't know that those of you that have been waiting will be bumped for K1 owners. They know how many of you are waiting and then I think any K1 upgraders would get priority.

I have a complaint! My Kindle broke LAST NIGHT! What sort of Limbo Land have I just arrived at? My right hand "next page" button is inoperable. Booo hooo! I have not called them yet, I am scared to hear the prognosis.

I am sorry that your K broke. You will be the first test case as to what customer service will do. Will they just give you a K1 replacement (doubtful), will they give a K2 replacement for free (doubtful), will they offer you a K2 replacement for a reduced cost. Please keep us informed as to how cu handles this.

Yes, I'd be interested to hear what they do for you.

Page 98 of the Kindle 2 user guide says the battery is replaceable.

I am too nervous to make the call!

 

[MamaProfCrash]

Go for it. If it is briken, it is broken. And we are all curious as to what the response is going to be.

My biggest complaint... 

My K1 is less than 3 months old and I can't get a K2.  I want a new K2!

 

[ELDogStar]

15 more days until shipping starts!

Always a countdown to something, isn't there.

It was mentioned somewhere today that the Kindle represented a percentage of Amazon's unit book sales. I can't remember if it is 10% or 20%, and  can't seem to find it now. Anyone remember?

I think it was 10%

here is the most informative play by play from this morning

COMPLAIN - I have a sore shoulder and neck from sitting at the computer for THREE SOLID HOURS reading all the posts!   

I am keeping my K1 so why am I reading all this LOL LOL LOL

Me too! But - I caved and bought my K2. A slightly used K1 will be the perfect Valentine's Day present for my husband. (plus a few sports-themed ebooks)

Does he get your K1 on Vday or are you going to make him wait until you get your K2?

 

[BambiB]

I know this is a thread for complaining, but on the bright side of the K2 release announcement, anyone waiting for the K1 (who still wants K1) can now save about $150 and get it overnight.

 

[ConnieK]

Good question!  As he is out of town for most of the month, he won't even realize it is a slightly belated V-Day gift.

Seems to me much ado about not much.  I don't see any reason to upgrade to a new Kindle until it gets color (assuming Amazon continues to sell replacement batteries).
