Jgaiser, even before the update, about half the time, the justification switch had no effect, sadly. I don't know why Kindle/Amazon makes this so difficult. Kobo devices allow full justification to be turned off reliably (and without a hack), and the iBooks app on iOS devices allow it, too (although the switch to turn it off is hidden in the Settings app).

unless my eyes are deceiving me, it looks like they also shrunk the % bar.
edit-just compared it against my wife's un-updated kindle:yes, it is smaller by about 1/3, unless it's just the sharper contrast compacting everything. Last edited by xg4bx; 09-12-2012 at 02:59 AM. |

<p align=justify> It's never a good idea to hardwire such settings into books, but unfortunately many book creators do. |

Does the firmware update change the behaviour of the wireless on/off switch. Or clearly asked is it still possible on V 3.4 to switch on/off wireless mode with a few cklicks? Thanks for a quick test for those who already updated.
