Description Tyson Koger 2012-07-23 19:42:02 UTC

I wanted to edit the Amazon Kindle page(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Kindle) because I notice the dimensions of the Kindle Touch and Kindle 4 were not correct when looking at the millimeter unit(while the dimensions in inches were correct).  When I went to the edit tab I saw the markup:

{{convert|6.8|in|mm|abbr=on}}

6.8in = 172mm

But the page displays 170mm.  It also displays 170mm for the width of the 6.5in Kindle 4.
