30 Days of Kindle Meme: Day Two

So, I have to open today's entry by asking for a moment of silence in honor of my Kindle. The annoying error I mentioned a few weeks ago has persisted, and today they had me try a factory reset. Whatever caused the problem was not fixed by that, but actually made worse. It is dead. I can still read on my spiffy iPad, but the Kindle is no more.
Yes, I am beyond words upset about this. I was planning on getting a new one eventually, but not right now.
However, luckily I have a spreadsheet with the Kindle's contents, so the meme can go on.
Which brings us to:
Day 02 - How many books have you managed to fit on it? How many of those books are still unread?
There were 526 books on the Kindle, with 41 of them being unread. My Amazon cloud shows 471 items, but that includes some that were archived (about 25) so there were a bunch of PDFs I'll have to transfer over from the PC when I replace the Kindle. I did recently go through and clean up all the deleted items, so they won't clog things up when I get that far. I think I'll be happy I have the spreadsheet at that point...
