Kindle Paperwhites Turn themselves on and the wireless on to get the update????
My Kindle spends 99.9% of the time in Airplane mode. (I dont use the experimental browser, and do any book shopping on the computer. Maybe every few months I will find something buy it and then turn the Kindle off Airplane mode to let Amazon send it.)
So this is the Situation..
A few months ago (6 months?) when the last update was installed on my Kindle, I had bought a book and turned off Airplane mode to get it. Later that day I saw my Kindle was updating, and was thinking I was sure I had turned off the Wireless, but maybe I had forgotten, so oh well...
But Last night I noticed that while the cover was closed there was a glow from the screen, I thought the auto shut off when the cover was closed had broken so I opened it up to check it and discovered the kindle we in the middle of installing an update....
WTF?!?! I KNOW the wireless was off, (Airline mode) and the Kindle was in sleep mode with the cover closed, so the Kindle had to have woken up and turned on its wireless to check for and start downloading the update and install it...
Am I going to have to delete the wireless passwords from my Kindle to keep it from going online unless I want it to?
