Quite unhappy that she was not able to read her new book, Jeanine asked me to look at her Kindle this morning. It did not take long before I had completely disassembled the unit and identified the source of the problem. Although it looked fine from the front, the back of the viewing screen was badly cracked making a repair impossible. When I explained what had happened, Jeanine remembered “shoving” a water bottle into her purse containing the Kindle last night. Mystery no more.
