whitearrow. No, it really shouldn't... it's confusing. The initial thread was about a Kindle 1. Your concern is about a Kindle 2, which does not have a replaceable battery or a pinhole reset in the back.
Your opinion, definitely not mine. I have searched for information endlessly on the web, and found posts and threads years old. AND, massively importantly, those threads that were maintained open contained posts that were years apart but which finally offered a solution - and a solution is exactly and only what seekers seek. The original question was old, yep, but that does not mean that everyone has moved on from that program/hardware/OS. And so, those much later posts will be very much welcomed by those STILL seeking an answer to the original post. You are probably not aware that there are hundreds of thousands of people still using Windows 95, billions still using Windows 98, hundreds of billions still using XP - think on.
Until about 2 years ago, I made regular use of DOS. True. My system was then Win98. Win98's Sort was/is wrong, and so I had to drop into DOS in order to achieve a correct Sort. Not everyone is doing what you do in the same way you do it. Some of us are working outside the norm. Keep everything for as long as is practicable.
K1, K2, K3, it does not matter. All information has value. Despite what the experts say, some things are not so very different, and one suggestion often leads to the thinking of a different approach, despite different hardware/software. This I can attest to because I have been around these computer things since before the PC was first sold. Trust me. You are so wrong.
(And I would very much like to know, why are so many of you younger peeps so hung up about where posts are posted. Stop being so uptight, so anal. When I was your age, I would not have given a toss if someone posted a question in a "wrong" thread. It's just communication, for hmpf sake, calm down. Have a drink. Dork.
Sorry, you are wrong. Keep old threads for at least a decade, and allow them to be added to. This will Help people, your choice will only hinder.
