Paperwhite Sleep Images
So, how are the images on the Paperwhite? I never liked the dead authors theme of the Keyboard and older, but the images on the Touch are actually [IMO] fairly nice. Granted, most of you probably have the SO version or magnetic cover, and thus never see them, but I wonder if they're any good....
Any changes from the Touch's images? |

I originally got the special offers but paid the $20 so that the PW would sleep and wake with the closing and opening of the case. The screen images are the same as on the Touch and the 4NT: typewriters, pencils and such.

I never see the sleep images. My PW only goes to sleep when I close the cover. It awakes immediately after I open the cover.

Same as the KT, as far as I can tell.
I never found those to be too exciting. And I wish they had a bit more variety. There is what, 4-5 covers? I always seem to either have that typing machine or the pencils. Oh well, no biggie. |

Hmm, wonder if mine is a bit laggier than yours. When I open the cover I see the sleep image for a second before it flashes to my place in the book.

With the Kindle Cover the sleep images become barely a glimpse. It is a much more bookie experience. You open the cover, it comes to life and you read. Very nice experience.
