Samsung Galaxy Player 5 - a few questions

[rgeorg]

It's all working nicely now, thank goodness.
@New
Can you please tell me what settings, fonts, etc you use for the Screen Dim and Moon+ settings on the SGP5? That would save me alot of fiddling around, to have a starting point. I probably don't need syncing between devices.
I'll compare the Samsung and the KF, but mostly I'll stick with the DXG at home and the K3 on weekends.
I almost wish that I had daily commute so that I'd have an excuse to spend more time with the SGP5.

I know what you mean, I feel guilty not using my KFHD as much as the SGP5, IpodT, Zip Clip, and PW. I only can read and listen so much in a sleepless night :-)

I will look and get back to you.

But I have screen dim set for 2 nights and 2 days, and I switch between the 2 nights.

[rgeorg]

Do you mean two different night/day settings? Why?

I have screen dim set at 70.2% Contrast and 0.4% Brightness all the way down for night reading. I have the shortcut on my home screen. For normal lighting I don't use screen dim just have the brightness turned all the way down.

Great - I'll try that as a starting point. I seem to do better with high contrast, but a non-white background. How do you get a Screendim shortcut setup? Shortcuts->Applications->ScreenDim? Maybe a better way to get a shortcut button to immediately set/unset?

Also, I am interested in purchasing an ebook that is Secure Adobe Epub. Can I read this on the SGP5? With what app? Can Secure Adobe Epub eBook be read on the KFHD, do you know? I have that (ADE if I remember) setup on my jetBook, which I just got back from a friend who had borrowed it (and decided that she preferred purchasing physical books). I could use the jetBook, but I'd prefer to try out the SGP5.

I have so many books I need to get through in the next 10 days (Book Club recommendations). Am listening to two and reading two. And trying to remember Scrabble techniques for Words with Friends which I just installed on the KF and SGP5 - very handy syncing! Haven't played in over a decade, but this is wonderful (WWF). The Scrabble (EA) for the KFHD is on sale for only 99 cents from Amazon. I bought it to practice with.

I see that Mandano supports Adobe drm. I'll have to try it out.

For DRM'd ePub look at Mantano, Aldiko or BlueFire. Yes, it can be read on the KFHD as long as you load one of those reading apps.

[rgeorg]

OK - worked on the KFHD with Mantano. Good, can read book bought in 2010 and didn't finish. Still need to decide which reader prefer. Tough choice. Or could do different ereader on different devices? Not that it matters much.

Off to Dr appt today - yay! (first time for that response) Can use SGP5 while waiting. Too bad we don't have public wifi here.

Sorry took so long, but start with what Blossom said for the Screen Dim Settings, I set up 2 nights and 2 days because you can
As for the Moon + settings there are soooo many I can't list them all, but start with default settings, look at visual settings to change themes, you can make your own and name it.
