After 7 years, I managed to smash the screen on my beloved Kindle 3.

Does anyone have something lying around they would like to pass on? Located near Hamilton.

@ringbearer were you specifically after another Kindle 3 (Keyboard model)?

EDIT: After rereading your title I see that you aren't after anything specific. My partner has an old Kindle Keyboard lying around somewhere. I can ask if she wants to sell it for a couple of bucks if you were interested in getting the same model as your broken one.

Same here. I want a e-reader to make one of those weather displays. So it can be a really old model as long as it works. Let me know what you have.

Thanks, that might be overkill for my uses. Something like a really old kindle would be great.

I'm checking out their new offering, $200 for a waterproof paperwhite.

$15 cheaper if you buy from Amazon direct, so in that zone where I might support local...
