Great news for Cool-er owners, this firmware carries Huge improvement on the device!
After update the firmware, I have found so far the following improvement:

Return of the loved Last page resume.

A lot faster interface browsing speed. Page refresh is a lot faster than before. Starting to feel like a 400 MHZ CPU powered system.

A lot faster in book page turning speed.

A lot faster in Horizontal to vertical (and back) page turn.

A lot better reflow in PDF document.

Pictured PDF enlargement in horizontal page: Say a page that originally fit ONE vertical page can now be chopped to around 3/5 displayed in a horizontal page and once pressing next page, the remaining is show in another 3/5 format! The fonts must be in 1/A but it is much more readble for comic pages! One step closer to my original idea of chop zoom.

However there are always room for improvement:

RTF reading still down, it works very well in old firmwares... don't know why it won't work now!

more visible shadow of previous page (fonts) in white areas.

.jpg can't zoom in half page horizontal like .pdf graphics files. If that can also be done in 3/5 chop or 1/3 chop in the future, it would be a great comic book reader

WE better write to them to press for more functions!

Fellow COolers, have you found any other new functions / improvements?
