My Kindle Keyboard kept freezing repeatedly. I would do a reset (hold power on for 20 seconds) and it would run for a while, then freeze again. I noticed that this always happened when the screen saver tried to come on. I hooked it to my PC over USB and deleted all the SPECIAL OFFERS. And the problem went away! The next time more SPECIAL OFFERS were downloaded, it started again. And stopped again when I deleted them.
To delete SPECIAL OFFERS, go to the system folder (hidden folder) and delete everything in the .assets folder.
