Sorry about the technical mumbo jumbo. The 5 way controller. Depressing it when the Kindle is sleeping will turn on wifi, then it will go back to sleep with the wifi on, and when you turn it on again the wifi still will be on. It's easy to accidentally push the controller when you are slipping it into a sleeve, or carrying it around.

I noticed that I did this a couple of times with my new Kindle with special offers, since there is a shortcut from the screensaver ad that connects your wifi to download information on the advertised product/service.
