But beware that this will remove all user configuration and data (including books
and registration).

There are multiple quick and easy was to power off a jailbroken kindle.
And on older Kindles you can't register till the date is correct and you can't enter the date on some. Some don't even have a menu to change the time! You have to repeatedly connect to 3G or Wifi, depending on model till it set it off the internet.

No doubt the hibernation mode of later models is a CPU feature.

Also best to leave connected to laptop for charging after logical eject when you added books as it's then doing indexing.
