Cant I have a simple blank screen?
I am used to my 505 where you get a simple blank screen vice the pictures my K2 gives me.
Is a simple blank screen too much to wish for |

Turn it off? Or make your own blank screen screen savers.
Edit: I forgot to add the "make your own" screen saver link. Go to the bottom of the page and you'll see instruction links for K1 and K2. Last edited by daffy4u; 03-13-2009 at 11:11 AM. |

Does anyone know if we can inject personal pictures in the screensaver mode? Although I do love the old time drawings, I would to change it out if possible.

I cannot say for sure, but it's possible that if you mod your Kindle 2 to add in your own photos, you may invalidate the warranty.

I guess I can just turn it off... I cant access settings until I register the darn thing and that will not happen until I get back to the states in April.

Why is this such a big deal?

It is a mental thing really. My mind does not want to accept the fact that the screen will not burn in and feels better when it looks blank or "turned off"
