Picky-Picasso and ebs,
You might want to touch bases with ebs on this "fix" (I hate to call it a hack...:-).
I, too, would like to see this "fix" available on my Kindle DX (Last Page becomes Screensaver), but I have read some things on past blog entries that give me some pause.
1. It may be possible to "brick" the Kindle during a "fix". Too nice a system to do that to it.
2. If you load an older OS version into your Kindle, the newer OS version may just download via wireless from Amazon to replace it next time you "Update" (Assuming wireless is on).
3. I've read that Amazon may try to "block" useful "hacks" in their next OS Update. If that's true (and if that happens), we may be chasing an elusive goal by continuing to hack the updates (assuming someone is willing to continue to modify the hack).
SO...perhaps we should try to convince Amazon to include a "Last Page" screen saver function in a future (official) Amazon OS update?? It could be a selectable option perhaps.
This feature would be most useful (and might become even more popular?) if Kindle DX had this feature on it! My application won't tolerate a "bumped" button during use, hence the need for this feature.
