It looks like JBL has support for PDB and ePub B&N books now. |

I tried checking my account and re-downloading to the same results. Maybe I am missing something. Despite earlier experience where all caps was fine, I tried using the proper case for the name, after all upper case failed. I know the credit card number is right because I re-entered it on to BN and re-downloaded. |

Thanks. |

Per another poster, BN epubs need both the name and CC # entered with no spaces.

New Firmware update for Aluratek Libre Pro 0.18g
I'm completely stoked! this firmware update has content search within text pdfs.
rendering of pdfs has, imo vastly improved. While it may have been in the last firmware update, TOC works and I hadn't encountered any books which had one and it works great in the first two books i tried. Was gonna sell this on ebay due to pdfs rending so crappily and no content search, but it's now a keeper. Please post any other changes you observe. thanks |

Sounds like the official release version of 0.16b, maybe with a few tweeks and fixes?
(If so- Great!) Luck; Ken |

Does the Libre have an update like the JBL that allows reading B&N books?

Does anybody have an answer to my problem& My JBL stopped booting up beyond the logo page. I tried to update the firmware with no success - it simply wouldn't go any further than logo. I couldn't find any answers on internet. Any help or should I just get another e-book reader?

That is a scary thought for it to be typical. I'm assuming that if it really is that typical, they surely (or at least should be) working on a fix to update them and prevent the issue.

I have just finished upgrading my JBL's firmware from v15 to v16e.
The first time it said that the firmware upgrade had failed. I reread the instructions, and realized that I had not unpacked the three files. So I did it again. The second time, the process froze. The animation of the page moving from the file to the device froze, and the (green flashing) light was not on. So I pressed the reset button and tried again. This time everything went flawlessly. I am very impressed with the pdf reflow. Both the font and the spacing are a little too big, but who cares? I may experiment with the font size when I get around to reading one of the pdf books. I spent $10 on a new SD card rather than move everything on my card onto a new folder on my hard drive and then move it all back again after the upgrade was completed. The pdf reflow alone is worth the $10 in my book. For $10 I feel like I have a new device. This brings the total of what I have spent on my JBL to $180. Still a great bargain as far as I am concerned. |

My entire library is on SD, so the 100MB reader memory is always empty (except for the two empty folders- Books and Pictures that it links through to get to the SD card). And I keep a separate SD card for firmware. So reformatting the reader and reinstalling firmware is never a big deal. I use this reader all the time and would rather fix it than wait for a replacement. |
