And whichever genius at Interead who decided to make the upgrade key combination one that requires three hands has a special place on my death list now.

Anyway, I finally got the thing on. Thoughts:

* the "remember last page" thing doesn't. It seems to put you in the vicinity, but is usually a few pages out. No big deal though.
* font sizing increments seem to work better
* page turning seems a little snappier

I still think the surrounding software for moving around the file system is appallingly clunky, though.
I also have a Pocketbook 360 and with it I noted that it frequently doesn't actually open to the last page I was on. Apparently its related to the way the page numbers are set up, one "page" can be several screens long, it defaults to the start of the "page"

I never noted this with my Cool-er previously though. I will have to get a SD card to do the upgrade.
