On the first day I got MK, I subscribed to the "blog" New York Times-Latest Headlines along with some books.

Currently the "blog" is stuck on Wednesday, Dec 3, 2008 and I don't know how to get it refreshed. It worked fine until that date

I've thoroughly charged my batteries and have done a soft reset. My Whispernet signal strength is a full 3-4 bars.

I have noticed that when I leave Whispernet on, the signal strength seems to zero when I return to the Kindle after 30 minutes or longer. I've been trying to see if having it on for a long period would help & it does not seem to. I haven't actually sat down and watched the signal strength bars....

Any suggestions I could try before calling Amazon CS Monday when I have some time?

Thanks,

Marci

Ann-

That is excellent advice!  I did everything you recommended except a "hard" reset.

Finally decided to look on the computer at my Kindle account and discovered that is was simply....

that the trial period had stopped.  I reactivated it and am so happy it was operator error and not the Kindle!
