I'm new to the boards, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. I did several searches before posting but found nothing close to my concern.
There are many reasons I love my Kindle. There is only one reason I hate it; it's called the power button. It would be an extremely rare occurrence to slide the power button by accident, especially if it's in a case that makes it even more difficult. The worst thing that would happen is that the Kindle goes to sleep - no harm, no foul. To deliberately power off requires a bit of dexterity and a lot of time/patience. Why does it take so long (it often seems like minutes)? Am I the only one who finds this simple exercise so exasperating?
Is there a way to change the length of time one must slide and hold the power switch?
