Also, if I'm able to update my Kindle, will using the screensaver hack at the site you linked me to give me custom screensavers while keeping PDF support and increased battery life?
You will not be able to install the 2.3 update with the screensaver hack on your Kindle (there is no need to delete you "screen_savers" folder).

Would you please tell me what the current version number of your Kindle is and where you downloaded the screensaver hack you installed (a link to it if you can)?
