Now That I seem to have a functional Mentor (Lite...) I would like to understand some things about it and it's potentialites better.

The silly power LED color thing aside - will it ALWAYS have the little 'Off' symbol in the middle of the screen when not in use ?
Seems absurd to me if that is true - wasteful, perhaps - and can it cause 'screen burn' ?

Having looked at relevant posts before purchasing it, many references have been made to upgrading the firmware, both by Astak's version and the Cooler Reader version.

I find myself wondering what changes and/or improvements each of these provide and would genuinely appreciate more info if someone would oblige me here ?

When making any technology part of my daily life I want to understand how to use it as well as it's quirks (good or bad) and my reading habits are very important parts of my days !!!

I will appreciate any education anyone is willing to help me with here.

Thanks.
