I might go along with the restart periodically but I'm not sure that is sufficient. This morning I installed the new jailbreak, restarted, installed the screensaver hack and restarted. I just dumped the log file (via the search box ;dumpmessages) and it shows data from Feb 20. So rebooting does not clean it out. And even "dumping" it to a file does not clean it out since I had done one last night, too.

Of course, I admit, I have no idea whether there are MORE logs on the device that might be cleaned by a restart. But I would not mind being able to do my own house cleaning of what I probably mistakenly think of as MY KINDLE.
