Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

While I love the Kindle, there appears to be a manufacturing defect that results in the pixels in the screen "dying." We've had two Kindles and each lasted about 6 months before the pixels "died." The result was that part of the screen was frozen (looks a bit like permanent lines on the screen). The remaining pixels continue to function normally. This is a defect in some of the screens that needs to be corrected.
