Break out the margaritas! I just did the sun-fade test on my 2nd replacement K2. No fading!!! I'm thrilled because I really love this thing and really wanted to keep it. In general, I still think Amazon still has to address the lighter text issue, but this Kindle is better in that area than the first two I had.

Hope all of you who are having problems get them resolved. Don't give up. Amazon CS said they would keep sending me Kindles until I got one that works and I took them up on that offer.

As promised in another thread, here are margaritas for all. Let's party!

WOO HOO!!  Congratulations, I'm glad this one worked!!

I'm doing my sun test as soon as I finish my second cup of tea.  (not heading to work until noon today)

Too bad we can't have a real-life party for our Kindles!

Congratulations, that's great news!  Susan, let us know as soon as you've checked.  (I just sat out on my deck with a sweatshirt on, it's 57 degrees, we're going to go on a picnic later.)

Just the news we (including your old "buddy"  ) wanted to hear this morning.  I'm so happy for you!

ha ha ha ha! Thanks, Kathy. As my husband told me when I first got my Kindle 1, you will have to have the K surgically removed from Travis' hand! Or have him surgically removed from that recliner! That's OK, we all know the feeling of being mesmerized by the Kindle. Trouble is, it doesn't wear off - not for me, anyway.

Thanks, Susan. I hope yours passes the test too. Make sure to let the sun shine directly on the screen and then turn a few pages. Let us know.

Thanks, Dona. Keeping my fingers crossed. I plan to read by the pool today, so I'll know if it will hold up.

Yippee, no fading! I get to keep it!

Congratulations DD and Susan.  I think I better call my mom and have her check hers today.  She isn't even aware an issue exists.

Party Time!​

 

[Susan in VA]

Oooh, pretty!  Methinks this calls for a celebratory chat some evening soon...  if DD and I can tear ourselves away from our new toys, that is.
