At least, this is the case with my Kindle. So check that.

I probably haven't set up the new one on as many networks yet.

Still, it's a powerful difference. What the hell are those things doing when you're not reading them? Surely they should be idling waiting for user input or a push from the mothership. Is having its ears open really that taxing?

Yeah, I keep the wifi on my kindle off except in the few minutes when I am actively downloading something (I'll often send several things to it, and only a day later turn on the wifi--it's like little surprises!). Helps the battery last forever instead of just a long time.

That is the feature Sticky Keys in action.

I think you turn it off by pressing both shift keys at the same time. Or maybe it's both Ctrl keys.

New gmail.

Not a fan as the number of new emails that list in the browser tab don't reflect actual amount of new emails. It says five when I have more like ten. Do I have to click each tab to find out if I have New instead of being able to glance at the browser tab with the actual total?

I just disabled all the tabs except for the Primary. Problem solved.

Me too.

I love the tabs for my work e-mail. Gmail does a good job of sorting the stuff I actually need to see into that Primary tab and stuff that can wait into everything else. I rarely use the web interface for my personal, so maybe that wouldn't be true for my own stuff.

I don't have it in front of me to be sure, but I think each tab will tell you how many new messages it has before you click on it. You do have to have the window open to see all that.

Ditto ditto.

If you disable the other tabs, does all the email that would go into "Social", say, go into "Primary"?

Yes.
