I just got a Kindle 2 and promptly went to Amazon to check out what free books they had available. Unfortunately, many of the free books on Amazon are formatted poorly, have messed up metadata, etc. So I removed them from my Kindle. (I've since discovered FeedBooks)

However, these books still show up in the Archived Items on the Kindle. Is there any way to remove them? I know I'm never going to need them again, so I trashed them from the Amazon Media Library, but they still show on the Kindle! I've even tried removing them from the Media Library trash, but it won't let me delete them. Arg!

I know they're not taking up space on the device, but it just bugs me. Any tips?
