  • "MRPR Sheet View" aka "bottomsheet". This appears to be related to the upcoming "updated page location dialog" mentioned in the firmware release notes. Appears to show when and on what device the last jump between pages was made for the current book.
  • Delete a book from the user's account and also return a purchased book for a refund. "Your refund will be credited to your original form of payment within 3-5 business days." Reasons for the return: Accidental purchase, Compatibility issues, Defective content, Digital rights restrictions, Download problems, Found a better price elsewhere, Offensive content, Quality issues, Unwanted purchase.
  • Minor changes in the code that supports the "Kindle Curator" feature. This is a potential future feature that shows the cover of the book currently being read as a screensaver.
Love your sneaking around the binary. What tool do you use to do it? Just a hex editor looking for strings?
