Same result again. Kindle "on" all night, this time with the charger connected. In the morning I switch the radio off, then wake it up from sleep. No automatic downloads have taken place. Switch the radio on and the day's NYT edition appears in a few seconds.

Conclusion (pending evidence to the contrary): The whole push thing is nonsense and no content gets delivered to the Kindle "overnight" or at any other time except when you have it turned on and fully awake. Content may be "delivered overnight" to your Amazon media library, but it doesn't get downloaded until you turn the device on in the morning.

Also if this is true, leaving the radio "on" when you're not using the device should not use any more power than having it off, as every thing turns off once the device goes to sleep after 10 minutes.
