Hi everyone,

Kindling away here fine EXCEPT that my Kindle sometimes doesn't receive its paper in the morning. Wireless is on as usual, but it just doesn't come through. It's there in my Media Library, but I have to manually transfer it to make it work.

Any ideas? It happens quite sporadically.

Thanks all.

Looking at the customer reviews of periodical content, that seems to be a frequent complaint for many titles.

Maybe I've been lucky but so far all my content has downloaded fine.

What do you mean by that? All my content has too downloaded fine. It's the periodicals that..err.... periodically don't download at all. I then have to go into the Content Manager on my Kindle and manually download it. I later notice that TWO copies of that paper are now on my Kindle, indicating that the first copy got stuck in cyber heaven...somehow... In any case, I called Amazon and they have no clue what's wrong.

That includes my subscriptions, I purchase very few books through Amazon.
