I've missed it so much.
It broke on Wednesday. I phoned Amazon who sent a replacement no questions asked. But I had to live two days without it.

My new one just arrived and I am sitting watching it charge with what dh says is a soppy grin on my face.

Well I'm not BU am I?. He just doesn't understand the luurve.

I love my kindle...so much so I built a paitio and bought a special chair for the garden to enjoy it all the more. Blush

I looked on Amazon last night after reading this and posting ^^ about broken kindle.

I clicked the 'call me' button.

The phone rang.

5 minutes of a few confirmation of identity questions.

Replacement Kindle will be here Tuesday

Am very impressed and excited that it was so quick.

And it's not even my bloody kindle!

I want one! Envy Currently trying to sweet talk DH into buying me one now even though it's not my birthday for months.

SarahStratton · 15/05/2011 10:45

YABU. Books are much better. They smell of books too.

psiloveyou · 15/05/2011 11:54

Ilythia I got mine from Comet but when it broke I didn't try taking it back. I did what GoodDaysBadDays did and they sent a new one straight away.

Where can I find titsalinas covers, does anyone know?.

Where's this Kindle thread and how do you email books to one another?

BabeRuthless · 15/05/2011 12:22

I love my Kindle. My Nan died earlier this year & left me £200. She was a big reader (when they cleaned out her flat my parents found 8 books she'd borrowed from the library the week before) so I reasoned it would be what she wanted & got a Kindle. Haven't looked back since, I had a Sony Reader before and it was such a massive faff setting it up & putting books on it whereas now if I'm at work browsing on my phone & see a book I fancy I can send it to my kindle & have it waiting for me when I get home. I love the thng.

Jaquelinehyde · 15/05/2011 12:35

Yes I want to know where I can look at Tits' covers? I may have to PM her even though I have an amazing cherry read cover with built in light from amazon.

My Kindle deserves more than one outfit!

lurkerspeaks · 15/05/2011 13:48

YAB slightly U to be stroking it!

Enjoy using it - yes.

Offer it close personal favours = bit odd!

I heart mine too.

agedknees · 15/05/2011 14:11

I love my kindle. dh has one too, although he skits my kindle because of the big typeface. Calls my kindle 'the Janet and John kindle'.

CurrySpice · 15/05/2011 14:15

Kindle wars!!

irishqueen · 15/05/2011 17:03

How much titsalina? My new kindle needs to feel greener?

psiloveyou · 15/05/2011 17:17

Where do we find titsalina I agree with jaquelinehyde my kindle deserves a whole wardrobe. I've just got a boring black cover I fancy a red one.

I love stroking my Kindle. After a while the light pops out of the cover and Gleams.

dyzzidi · 15/05/2011 21:45

I love love love my kindle! DH loves it as I no longer have books everywhere. Thanks to the kindle club thread i have loads of books to read too!

dyzzidi · 15/05/2011 21:49

LittleMissFlustered · 15/05/2011 21:53

Between my kindle, calibre and some very good friends I am never at a loss for a book. Love the fact that new releases appear in my library at midnight.

Shiiiiiny!

travispickles · 15/05/2011 21:56

How come I paid £50 for my replacement? (Apart from that I would have paid anything to get it back asap...)

dyzzidi · 15/05/2011 21:59

Little miss flustered you should have a look at the kindlle book club thread!

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 15/05/2011 22:07

I have to wait a week before I can order mine Sad but in the meantime I've put Kindle for PC on my laptop and started making a mini collection of freebie books.

I'm a bit excited Grin

LittleMissFlustered · 16/05/2011 23:19

Random fact. Kindle charger also charges vast numbers of samsung phones. Also, kindle chargers are bloody ninjas, mine has disappeared. Again!
