^yeah, after the 1-minute timeout, it goes to "off" mode... it takes at least 10s to boot up (i.e. not the "instant" on with the Kindles)

Makes you wonder why they're not simply storing RAM data into flash before shutting down; and while booting just load it to memory?
I think it's b/c of WinCE 6.0. If I understand the architecture correctly, everything is loaded into RAM?

jbcupdate.bin (one of the links) for updating the device, is 1GB big... I don't think a ROM firmware would be that big even with WinCE 6.0, unless its just a directly load-into-RAM thing
