Dropped my Kindle and it's dead

A terrible thing has happened. I dropped my Kindle down the stairs. It slipped out of its case and and slid to the bottom step and then somersaulted onto the floor where it landed with a crack. It switches on but then gives up and turns off. Catastrophy! It holds my library of over 200 books! Oh no, I really can't travel without it.The good news is that the Amazon Customer Service Help Desk is fantastic. My Kindle is 15 months old and out of the warranty period, but they are happy to provide me with a new identical one at a cost of £50. This is wonderful. The original price was £130. It should be with me in a few days, post free, when I can download my library to the new Kindle. Isn't this brilliant?
