Snap Your Kindle to Attention

Restart and Refresh
You may notice your Kindle isn't collecting your subscribed blogs properly, or otherwise updating itself via its whispernet connection. Before you scrounge around for the Kindle support number, try refreshing your Kindle with the Settings menu. While you have the Home screen opened, press the Menu button. Toggle the 5-way switch down to Settings and press in to select it. Press the Menu button again, then toggle down to the word Restart and press in on the 5-way to select and make it happen.

Your Kindle screen will go blank. Be patient. The restart process will take a couple of minutes (more or less).

Sometimes this can make all the difference. It certainly won't hurt.
If LIFE only came with a Restart setting...
