Mr Tamblyn,

Thanks for the upgrade....the installation process was good and non painful. [used the Kobo App link from nth America rather than waiting for Borders AUS to get around to it]

I have noticed that now after the upgrade the USB profile for the device now only requests 100mA rather than 500mA. Assuming that the profile indeed matches the devices current draw for battery charging, charging from a computer (rather then dumb 5V charger) will now take much much longer.

Is this correct?

Cheers,

Mikobo
