Yes, that's right. BTW, a lot of my books come with DRM too, but they don't stay in that way a lot. FW and agency price showed me that lesson. So, all my purchased book, it doesn't matter where they come from, receive the same "care"

This may have been mentioned earlier, but the other possibility is for those with custom firmware to make a screenshot of whichever page they wish to be the screen saver, and select it in the pictures list. The latest version (1.05j) places the screenshots into the images list automatically. May turn out to be a slightly simpler way than pulling the images out of the files (especially if those files are DRM'ed EPUB or other formats).
