What I find disturbing...Amazon knew prior to K3, there were many complaints regarding the menu text were just too small and too light. They could of just as easily corrected this for the K3.

Look how bold and dark all the Kindle messages are on the K3 is...such as "Please wait while your device update" (something along that line). Easy to read, even with my low vision.

Viewing the big 150 font on my K2...the text just barely runs off the edge of the screen. So there is definitely plenty of room to expand the menus text up to that point, as well bold/darker. I did not try the Big or Big 125 fonts on the K2..but know that would be a great enhancement, for many who reads their Kindle books just fine, but struggle to read the menus.

And had Amazon developers done that...NiLuJe wouldn't be tying up his week-end reworking this for me. Given that...just what would you be doing instead, NiLuJe? (probably working on someone else hack issues...so my issues is taking NiLuJe time away from others who needs his help too.

But all said and done, I'm grateful for this board and all the team effort to putting the hacks together. I love my screensaver photos of my precious beautiful grandchildren. I also made the photos into a 'book' to show as an album, turn pages like a book to see each photo, rather then putting sleep mode on and off in order to show off all the photos at one time.

That alone...is priceless to me. Thank You
