Kindle problems
I posted this in the welcome thread and was advised to post it here....
Hello all. I am new to the Kindle Voyage having had the original Kindle for several years...All in all I am fairly happy with the voyage with the exception that periodically when turning a page it jumps a chapter or two...I do not use the side buttons for page turning but use swiping as that's what I am used too.. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

This sounds like "user error". Could you perhaps be inadvertently bringing up the "browse" screen? I can honestly think of no way that swiping could cause the effect that you describe, and we've seen no other reports of this, which we surely would have if it has been some kind of firmware bug.

![]() However, a swipe up from the bottom of the screen brings up the "browser" screen allowing you to rapidly page through the book. |

Yes, that's what I was referring when I suggested that perhaps the original poster is bringing up that screen accidentally.

Harry, what is the purpose of that browser that comes up when you swipe up? I always hesitate from messing with something like that or a footnote since it seems like it can mess up my furthest last page read point.
