I still find it strange though, that the first images the KT genereates for a new book don't just properly fill the screen in sleep mode (or in the thumbnails). Stupidness.
There are two reasons I can think of. Space is one. With 2.0.0 they are not generating the largest cover image, so the cover images won't take as much space. The other thing the total number of images. They are only generating up to three instead of four. That keeps the total number of files in he images directory down and could prevent some problems.
