Putting the Kindle to sleep before closing the case may not always work--if the PW's case doesn't always stay closed properly, it may come slightly open when not in use which would have the effect of turning on the Kindle when not intended. Unfortunately, the e-ink Kindles have no way of turning off the "smart cover feature". My suggestion, other than springing for a new cover that stays closed better would be to use a rubber band along the outside edge of the case to hold it more firmly closed--might not be the most attractive method, but definitely cheap!
