1. A method comprising: displaying, on a display of a device, a page of text content of an electronic book while the device is in a power-on mode of operation;receiving, by the device, a communication package from a server, the communication package comprising: a bitmap providing a personalized mess
1. A method comprising: displaying, on a display of a device, a page of text content of an electronic book while the device is in a power-on mode of operation;receiving, by the device, a communication package from a server, the communication package comprising: a bitmap providing a personalized message comprising a name of a user of the device, anda script instructing the device to use the bitmap to display the personalized message on the display of the device when the device is in the power-off mode;receiving an indication to put the device in the power-off mode;switching from displaying the page of text content of the electronic book to displaying the personalized message on the display;placing the device into the power-off mode; anddisplaying the personalized message on the display when the device is in the power-off mode. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the communication package comprises a header portion and a body portion, and wherein the body portion includes the script. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the communication package comprises random information interspersed within the communication package to improve the security of the communication package. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the indication from the user of the device comprises receiving a signal from a power switch. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the communication package is received in response to a manual instruction by an administrative user. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the bitmap further includes an image to be displayed on the display of the device when the device is in the power-off mode of operation. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the script further instructs the device to use the bitmap to display the image on the display when the device is in the power-off mode of operation. 8. A computing device comprising: a display;one or more processors;a memory storing computer-executable instructions that cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising:displaying, on the display of the computing device, a page of text content of an electronic book while the computing device is in a power-on mode of operation;receiving a communication package, the communication package comprising: a bitmap providing a personalized message comprising a name of a user of the computing device to be displayed on the display of the computing device when the computing device is in a power-off mode of operation, anda script instructing the computing device to use the bitmap to display the personalized message on the display of the computing device when the computing device is in the power-off mode;receiving an indication to put the computing device in the power-off mode;switching from displaying the page of text content of the electronic book to displaying the personalized message on the display of the computing device; anddisplaying the personalized message on the display when the computing device is in the power-off mode. 9. The computing device of claim 8, wherein the bitmap further includes an image to be displayed on the display of the computing device when the computing device is in the power-off mode. 10. The computing device of claim 9, wherein the script further instructs the computing device to use the bitmap to display the image on the display when the computing device is in the power-off mode. 11. The computing device of claim 8, wherein the communication package is expressed in a package format that includes a header portion and a body portion. 12. The computing device of claim 8, further comprising a power switch, and wherein the receiving the indication from the user of the computing device comprises receiving a signal from the power switch. 13. One or more non-transitory machine-readable media containing machine-readable instructions executable to implement acts comprising: displaying, on a display of a first device, a page of text content of an electronic book while the first device in a power-on mode of operation;receiving, by the first device, a communication package from a second device, the communication package comprising: a bitmap providing a personalized message comprising a name of a user of the first device to be displayed on the display of the first device when the first device is in a power-off mode of operation, anda script instructing the first device to use the bitmap to display the personalized message on the display of the first device when the first device is in the power-off mode of operation;receiving an indication to put the first device in the power-off mode of operation;switching from displaying the page of text content of the electronic book to displaying the personalized message on the display;placing the first device into the power-off mode; anddisplaying the personalized message on the display when the first device is in the power-off mode. 14. The one or more non-transitory machine-readable media of claim 13, wherein the bitmap further includes an image to be displayed on the display when the first device is in the power-off mode. 15. The one or more non-transitory machine-readable media of claim 14, wherein the script further instructs the first device to use the bitmap to display the image on the display when the first device is in the power-off mode. 16. The one or more non-transitory machine-readable media of claim 13, wherein the second device is a server, and the receiving the communication package further comprises receiving the communication package from the server over a communication infrastructure that uses, at least in part, wireless communication. 17. The one or more non-transitory machine-readable media of claim 13, wherein the communication package comprises random information interspersed within the communication package to improve the security of the communication package.
