I have just installed 3.4 via USB into an un-jailbreaked (jailbroken?) Kindle 3 and it seemed to go OK.

It is still connected via USB to charge it, but I "ejected" it from Windows then turned the Kindle off via the slider. For the first time since I received it the screen is blank.

What happened to the "dead authors" screen saver? Is this a one off or a "feature" of the 3.4 firmware?

EDIT - I turned it on and off again and the "dead authors" have returned. Guess this must have been a one off.
