Hm.
It has not happened since that (though I haven't used the new one as much as my old PW.
That it might be a memory problem (if I understand the comments correctly) might be but on the other hand shouldn't the Kindle developers have solved it by now after so many device versions have been released? I imagine it happens to other people too.
This was/is the reason I wanted to check out a new Kindle - for about 1 year (or less) it has started to crash quite often. In most cases when using the biggest or second to biggest font and almost always after several fast page turns.
I do think it is the device but since this is an "old" PW and jailbroken it is probably not worth looking into it.
It certainly shouldn't happen with a new one. If it does again I'll come back to your offer to look into it, thanks!

Regarded collections - isn't this offered for the cloud stored books with the Voyage?
Haven't checked it out since I do not use this feature on Kindle.
Collections on device and sizeable fonts for the GUI would be on top of my wishlist for future Kindle functions as well as automatic pageturn.
