Amazon offers refunds or replacements for problem-causing Kindle covers

We’ve all heard of news related to case this year, about how a simple rubber case solving a very big antenna issue. But rarely do we hear news of a case causing technical problems to an electronic device. But indeed there is, and here we see a number of users have been saying about Amazon’s own Kindle Leather Cover.

Apparently, the problem stems from the metal hooks used in the case — they’re designed to conduct electricity in the lighted version of the case, but in the non-lighted version they’re reportedly causing Kindles to freeze or reboot. While the company hasn’t officially confirmed the problem, Amazon has told PC Magazine that its engineering team is looking into the issue, and that it will offer a refund or replacement to anyone experiencing a problem with the case, no matter when it was purchased.
