Very impressed with this device, it makes reading a joy again (after noticing that reading a lot on traditional mobile device screens was becoming very straining on the eyes very quickly after a while). With my Kindle I had the issue that I would connect it to a PC and it would switch into drive mode. The screen tells you that you can resume reading while charging by ejecting the device in Windows. I did it via the small icon next to the clock and the Kindle would stay in the USB drive mode. I then found the Kindle as a Drive when I opened "My Computer". I right clicked the Kindle in that window and chose "Eject" after which I was able to use the device while it was recharging on the PC.
Have been working on my old Netrunners project again for the last couple of weeks. Feels good, man. Github-Repo can be found here: https://github.com/gevrik/h4x0r4g3
I was a little annoyed by the Kindle keyboard not having dedicated number keys and so far I had to press the Sym key to bring up the window to enter numbers - but no more! To enter numbers quickly and painlessly with the hardware keyboard of the Kindle just keep the ALT key pressed and use the top row of keys to enter your letters (ALT + T to enter the number 5 for instance). I hope this helps some of you Kindle users to be less annoyed - I certainly am!
