Is it a non-interfering device? A Kindle has a cellular radio in it. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but that is still operating even when your Kindle is asleep, isn't it? I'm pretty sure that I've had books delivered to my Kindle by Whispernet even when it's "off" (ie, asleep, rather than powered off).
