K3 Only One Settings Page

I got my K3 on Friday but had not much time to really try it yet, all I did was reading the user's guide and playing with the settings.
Unfortunately, I could not find most of the settings as there is only one settings page.
On the bottom there is written "Page 1 of 1", but shouldn't there be 3 pages?
Is there something wrong with my Kindle or did I miss something?

Thanks for any help!

That's strange; I get 3 pages. Are you sure you're on "Settings" and not "Experimental Features"?

Yes, "Device Info" is the last entry on the page.

That's definitely the right page, but for me it's "Page 1 of 3". Have you tried resetting your Kindle?

From the "Settings" page, "Menu -> Restart".

My settings page(s) expanded as I registered the device. Or more accurately as the pre-registration info came in via wireless.

You can also reset it by holding the power switch to the right for 15-20 seconds and then releasing it. You'll know if it rebooted if you see the Amazon Kindle page and a white progress bar as it reboots.

I just tried "Restart", did not change, then also "Reset to Factory Defaults", but I still have only one settings page.

Drat. Is your Kindle registered? On the home screen, does your name show in the top left corner, or does it say "My Kindle"?
