It comes on "instantly" no matter what you do. My Nook, two Kobos and Sony all seem to have a "real" power down, or at least something very like it. I've tested about 7 Kindle models over the years. They only seem to show signs of booting after a "power off" if the battery has gone very flat.
Did you try holding the power button down for longer than 10 seconds. That should turn it completely off requiring a reboot.
