It may also keep a clock/calendar chip powered (low power like a digital watch). Some devices can power themselves on at preset times. Not sure about the kindles though...
In reference to this thread, this "off" mode should prevent indexing.
Perhaps "mostly off" is a better term.
So, you should agree with the "Princess Bride" misquote: "There's a big difference between mostly off and all off.".
