Can't wait to have this issue put to bed for me - received the device yesterday and when I saw the "screensaver" I immediately started searching for a way to get rid of it.

Massive thanks to ebs for solving a massive issue with the Kindle DX, and solving it elegantly - without removing any of the value of a low-power mode, yet adding all the value of behaving more like a book.

A lil' more review, and it seems that the framework-impl.jar.bdiff file is the point. Perhaps that's updated on the newer firmware? Does anyone know a way to use the unix/linux installation procedure for a windows user?

Barring that, is there a way to a) change the firmware version to one that works with this modification or b) change the framework-impl.jar file on the system so that the checksum allows the installation to continue?

Thanks..
