Paperwhite page turns
Occasionally when I turn a page it turns several pages at once. Something I'm doing wrong? Or some setting I'm not aware of?

I think it is just a glitch in the FW. My Voyage does that occasionally too.

This is an old issue with touch screen ereaders. If you tap to turn pages the solution is to swipe. If you swipe the solution is to tap. I started out tapping and had that problem and switched to swiping because of a discussion in some forum and it solved the problem for me. As many people have to go the other way to solve the problem.

I don't think anyone really knows why this happens but there are sure a lot of theories.

Maybe Arthur C. Clarke was right: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
