Thumbs down Troubleshooting my new K3W



Just received my Kindle 3 Wireless last night but having quite a few issues with it. Firstly, I cannot seem to get it out of the "USB drive mode". Even after following it's instructions and ejecting from the PC (running Windows 7 home premium) it remains on the same screen and the Kindle cannot be accessed.

I can't seem to create any collections either, the feature is permanently greyed out and I can't seem to find a solution to this either in the manual or FAQs. I've updated my software to 3.1 (as of 5 minutes ago), should I be looking to update the firmware??

I'm also looking to find a better alternative to the native mp3 function (to something where you can at least choose the tracks being played). Is https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=119851 the answer?

Lastly, it seems the default software for viewing Chinese (particularly Traditional) is not functionally 100%. Quite a few characters in my ebooks fail to display (shows up as rectangles). Is there a solution to this?

Thanks in advance for any help and sorry for the barrage of queries. Just want to iron out the edges before fully indulging.
