Thank you! I was gonna ask about that. I was planning to use the Kindle to read some of the books and documents my clients send me but I wanted to be really sure about confidentiality.
By the way, I plan to use the Kindle to proofread documents and since I have to sign crazy NDAs on some of them, I'd like to protect myself. I just spoke with someone at Amazon and they told me that once a document uploaded via USB is deleted, it is deleted for good. But
I'd like to double check if someone knows if a deleted file on a Kindle can be recovered with a software. For the record, I plan to turn off the WiFi while the file is on the Kindle.
