That's not a bug, it's a feature.

I am now going to "play nice"......

It's another week and we still haven't seen an update from Bookeen about the firmware for the Cybook Gen3...

Mine is now gathering dust in the corner crying out for new firmware....sad isn't it.

So what to do now....download Kindle for PC (FREE)...and get attached at the hip to Amazon....maybe.......ask Father Christmas for a new book reader that has working firmware : and has firmware that will be updated....maybe

Previously I said I would give them three months to sort out the issues with the new firmware....the clock is ticking....

Why is your Gen3 gathering dust ? Won't it allow you to read any books ?

Mine is also gathering dust. Mostly because I have a lot of paper books to read but also that I noticed that I liked to read paper books better. I hope this is because of the lack of "page number" so I am hoping that an ePub update will enhance the reading experience for the Cybook for me.

I don't use it much, because almost every time I want to read, I find I want to read something I don't have on it, and I end up reading it on a laptop, because I don't want to spend the time transferring it to the device.
I hope the day when I can have all my eBooks on it will come before it breaks...

Mine is gathering dust too more for that reason than the previous. It's so depressing to either have very few books of all I want to read in my reader or So many books I can't change books because there's too many library pages...
And they advertise for a 2go SD card...How dishonnest is that?
Luckily, I still have a lot of paper books to read
