I had my Kindle, K2, on the counter in my kitchen this morning and I hit it by accident with my elbow.  It flipped off the counter to the floor, which is tile.  I had my cover folded back and it landed flat on the screen and keyboard.    I was sure my K2 was going to be dead when I picked him up.  No, he was fine not a scratch on him and he works as good as ever.  I waited until now to make sure he was still okay before I posted this. I'm so thankful nothing happened to him.  I guess he passed his drop test, I hope to never ever repeat the test.

Holy cow, how scary for you.  I was holding my breath as I read your post.  I'm sure you were holding your breath as well.

Actually I sort of hyperventilated at the time.

Seems like a few KindleBoard members have accidentally put their Kindle in harms way, and the kindle has survived! This is very good news!

I thought you were gonna say you accidentally buttered it and put it in the toaster...that's something I'd do before my first cuppa uppah.

Toaster first, then butter, this may explain the burn marks on your ceiling. Sorry to break your bubble, but I don't drink coffee. That may explain why I hate mornings.

No, the burn marks on the ceiling are your fault for putting Maui in my head. Damn tiki torches said nothing about not using 'em indoors.

Well there's yer problem!

DO NOT do that test again.

WOW I was nervous as I read it.

ACCCK for the Kindle drop -- and YIKES on no coffee -- I need 2 cups just to be sociable in the morning -- and that generally means doing more than a grunt if someone speaks to me. Coffee is proof God loves me

I did something very similar, but in the bathroom.  Glad your K2 is OK!

Oh how scary! Glad all is well.

STOP... No MORE... I can't take it.
I will have nightmares tonight for sure.
I think I will super glue my K2 onto my left palm.

Then I'll mention not to do a fire dance inside either, the flaming torches can be a problem when you toss them.

I've never been a coffee drinker, my parents didn't drink it either so we never had it in the house. I'm used to slow mornings.

EEEEKKKKK....Do NOT let a poor person who had a rough day at work read this, after 2 glasses of wine!!!  You need to put a disclaimer on this!  I can't take the pressure!

*off to go get another glass to drown the memory of Kindles falling off the kitchen counter and to check on Sookie to make sure she isn't ON the kitchen counter*
