Hello all,

I recently got a Kindle 2 which I enjoy quite a bit except for one problem - my Kindle frequently freezes when waking from sleep mode. More specifically, I am able to slide the power button to wake the Kindle, and hence change from the "screensaver page", but once that is completed, pressing any buttons (prev page, next page, home, menu, etc.) does not work. I am then forced to do a hard reset (which, for now, works as a solution, but I would hate to do this all the time). Anyone have any ideas on how to remedy this? Is it a software and/or hardware issue? Thanks in advance!
