@juco/Ralph: Unfortunately, the built-in "Screen-Shot" hotkey sequence is disabled while the screen saver images are visible on the display. If you do not mind "stepping outside the box", you can scan your kindle on a flatbed scanner (or use a digital camera) to get a copy of the screensavers, then adjust them (800x600 16-bit Grayscale) to use as custom K3 screensaver images. Of course, for anybody who would be offended by digital data proxied through the real world with all of its analog "noise", you should probably also avoid JPEG compressed images due to added quantization artifact noise...
