I am not sure what holding it down for ~7-10 seconds does do, but I am pretty sure it still uses WiFi...
Yeah, I meant 7-10 seconds (it's been a while). Okay. So the only way to turn off is the WiFi is to "Turn off Wireless" in the Touch (and probably the newer Kindles) and use "Airport Mode on the K4 (and older Kindles). It shouldn't be any harder to remember to turn off WiFi on the Kindle then it is to remember to turn it off on the cellphone.

Thanks.
