That seems odd ... connecting to a WiFi network that's NOT broadcasting SSID is a fairly common requirement, since it prevents casual snoopers from noticing your network in the first place. For a much-touted platform like Android, this is VERY surprising.

My experience, exactly!! One thing I enjoy about the Libre Color is that it allows a short press to sleep and a longer (3 sec) press to turn off.
