The wish list, might take a longtime being fulfilled , unless more people join in this effort. but all in all this is an affordable good device as far as hardware is concerned(barring placement of buttons), but leaves a lot to be desired on the software side, IMHO.

Hi,

Yeah.. this forum is not properly organized so far so we can have a dedicated bugs section on the Hanlin reader forum.. Anyway, what I did so far is on the firmware release thread mention the open bugs present in there.
For the 11-12-2007 firmware: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16062

To get the bug to the attention of the Jinke Hanlin developers I would suggest logging the issue at the developer forum:
http://www.jinke.com.cn/Compagesql/E...elop/index.asp

So far I can say that the issues I logged there are being picked up by Jinke quite fast.

For the issues you mention:
Yes, I get the file length error as well for 10Mb+ doc files.
I am able to open RTF files though with the 11-12-2007 firmware. However, the layout is not quite right to me.
I do agree that the reading experience is superiour with the FB2 format for me as well. However I am not thrilled with the results that BD is giving me. Instead I'm using the DOC2FB2 converter and that gives me excellent results so far. Might give that a try: http://home.arcor.de/fb.tools/
