It's much faster than turning off and on and doesn't require any juice.

They call it "sleep" mode, but it's not like a computer going to sleep, it's more like a quick key lock or screen saver. Very fast and it's how I keep it on in between reading sessions (but not overnight).

But it would be neat to find a hack or someway to make this mode use user pics.
I was thinking more of being able to disable some buttons while you are reading. Like if you hold the Kindle with your left hand and keep accidentally turning pages with those buttons, you could turn them off and only use the right-side page buttons.
