About the frequent refreezing of the Kindle.
It might be due to Amazon's cover; mine never had trouble with it, but I would check out that option.
But I also think it's worthwhile to monitor the input of new books on the Kindle very carefully.
-take your time
-don't download all books in one go, but in batches 50/100
-let the Kindle charge while indexing
-check to see wether the indexing is done completely, before loading another batch of books (by random search etc)
-if a book, or a batch of books get stuck on indexing; remove it/them via calibre and try to find out which book/s causes the problem
- if the problem is with a book from Amazon; call them
- if it's your own book; convert it with Calibre or other from mobi to mobi once more.
-contrary to what Amazon states= 3500 books on you Kindle.........I experienced that the Kindle handles 1000-1500 books easily, but the one time I had 2200 books on it, well........it soon got stuck forever after that and I was due for a replacement Kindle.
