I looked around to see if the PW3 had the same issue and it appears that it does, so you see geekmaster coming up with the extensions to turn the lights off.
It seemed to me a pretty well known trait of the PW's that the frontlight can only be set very dim, but not actually off.
You are shopping for the wrong model Kindle -
Buy a KT2 (the current 'basic Kindle' in en_Amazon) -
No front lights to turn off, there isn't front lighting.
