Hello,

I am having a strange issue with the "progress dots" on the homepage that show how much of the book you have read. Its not anything major, but it really annoys me that it isn't working properly, so I would like to try to fix it.

Basically, what happens is the row of dots on the home screen that show progress is wrong. it is off by about 25% (when I have read 25% of the book, it shows I read 1/2 and when I get about 3/4 of the way through,it says I have read 100% and stops adding more dots). However, within the book, the progress bar is fine. I have found this to be the case on about 6 different books I tested. I called amazon support and they said this *may* be fixed after I get the software update (still haven't received it yet), but I think the guy more didn't want to address the issue in hopes the update would fix it.

Has anyone else had this or does anyone know how to fix it? I have tried deleting/re-adding the files and it didn't go away.
