My PW2 is currently setup with firmware 5.4.0, Jailbroken, with custom screensavers.
On my way to work this morning I tried to turn the page in a book I was reading and nothing happened. I tried to turn it off and nothing happened. Closing the cover (magnetic) didn't illicit the normal response either (I was pretty sure it wouldn't by that stage).
I put it in my jacket pocket thinking I'd give it a few minutes, maybe it was just having a funny five minutes.
If that didn't work I knew I could post here asking if anyone knew a way out of it or if I needed to do a full battery drain to try and get it back. Or if it had to go back to Amazon.
It ended up rebooting (when I took it out of my pocket it was checking for screen savers).
I know that things sometimes go wrong and the old switch it off and back on again usually resolves it.

Should I be worried? Is there anything I can do to check that there's no underlying problem with my Kindle?

Thanks in advance.
