Regarding the Customer Service: Yeah, but at least it was a run around without waiting for hours in a expensive international call and they were very polite about it. As long as nothing worse happens, I'm good - I want to read and not use it as a watch ... and if it turns worse: Amazon CS said they pick up shipping costs for faulty units.

I haven't updated to 3.0.3 firmware as yet. I decided I did want the screen saver hack so I went ahead and did that, just in case it would never bve available again. (Though I bet NiLuJe will figure out how to hack the new firmware.)
It's odd that the restart seems to be what is causing your Kindle to loose time, while just going into sleep mode after reading sessions doesn't seem to do this. Let us know if the problem still occurs with the new firmware version. If so, maybe that CS rep was correct, even though it seemed as if he/she was grasping at straws to give you a solution!
Very cool that Amazon will pay for the shipping of faulty units - and the replacement too, I would hope.
