I am probably one of the very few, but I rather like the pictures of dead authors.

If I ever try the screensaver hack, I'd probably just add more pictures of dead authors.

(O.K., maybe not.)
kevinofengland - I personally don't use my Kindle for music as I can't imagine it sounds very good - but since I've never used it for such, I am obviously just making unsubstantiated assumptions! I did a search for the Kindle 3's battery consumption while playing music (as did you, I am sure) and wasn't able to find much of anything. Here's a quote from a 2008 discussion about the Kindle 1:

You can also put MP3 files onto the SD card and listen to them while you read. You can't select specific songs, it just plays through them, but I sometimes enjoy having background music while reading. Be aware this will drain the battery MUCH faster than just reading will. The battery will last for days if you're just reading, but when listening to music or audiobooks will drain within same day (more like the battery life on the Palm)

The Kindle 3's battery is much improved over the Kindle 1's, but I should think playing music on it must still take a lot more "juice" than just reading on it does.
