About four years ago I upgraded my Kindle experience with the Oasis model. It was Amazon's top of the line unit at the time, and I've been happily using it on pretty much a daily basis. I almost always have at least half a dozen books going at once on it.
The other day I told it to download a couple of new books and it couldn't do it. Suddenly it was unable to connect to my home wifi. The weird thing is that it can see the wifi but just couldn't connect. Everything else at home has no problem with the wifi.
I tried ALL the recommended troubleshooting steps and eventually realized that it was a hardware problem that couldn't be fixed. Amazon only has a one year warranty, so I just ordered a new Paperwhite to replace it. Very frustrating but I won't be without it.
Actually, reading in the Kindle app on my iPad is a better experience, but the light weight of the Kindle is what keeps me using it.
