Amazon has offered to provide a full refund to those who purchased a non-lighted Kindle cover for the Kindle.
The problems began when the Kindle case went on sale. The case scores many 5 star reviews, but at the same time has over 100 one-star reviews of people complaining that their Kindle freezes, crashes or reboots when using this particular case. One report says the following…
I bought a kindle 3 (Wifi Only) about 3 months back and was using it without any trouble. Then, I bought this leather cover and suddenly my kindle ran into all sorts of problems. The screen froze frequently, kindle rebooted itself more than 4-5 times daily. I don’t think it’s a good idea to buy this product before amazon gets its act together. They have certainly not done a good job with this cover. I am going to replace this cover as soon as possible. My two cents – DON’T buy this cover.
