16e and B&N
Hi
I put 16e on today seeing the support for B&N, so Of course I had to try it out. I made B&N account and downloaded a free book. Jbl asked for my unlock code so I entered it. The book opened sooo now I bought a book I thought maybe Jbl would ask for the code again before opening the book but it didn't book opened properly. So I am pleased to have another source for books to this point I was just getting library books. It's nice to have an upgrade work as promised Gary |

the same unlock data (name&CC#) will open without you having to re-enter the data. Not sure how it will work across the two formats though. Luck; Ken Last edited by Ken Maltby; 08-21-2010 at 07:15 PM. |

16e???? Wow, last I checked they still had 16b as beta. So, do I just install 16e to get pdf reflow and all these drm supports? Or do I have to install everything?
Sorry guys, I haven't been keeping up. Been spending all my free time dissecting the new augen gentouch78 tablet. I actually created a website dedicated to problems and fixes to make it more competitive to the ipad at a fraction of the price. It's actually the most comprehensive list of fixes for an android tablet on the net. Check it out if you want http://augengentouch78.webs.com/ I've gotten to a point where everything works just great. The ereader apps are doing quite well with this. I've been carrying both my jbl and gentouch around. I guess they each serve their purpose. |

Welcome back LE;
The 0.16e firmware is what we have been waiting for, it really has an impact on the value of the JBL. Just install it as you would any of the earlier updates and you are good to go. But, you should use the USB cable to backup your JBL's internal user's memory to a folder on one of your PC's hard drives. If you are using it a lot, you might clean out a good chunk of space (at least 40MB or so) to ensure there will be room for the added use of the internal memory that this upgrade imparts. It's a good idea to have the backup anyway. In fact after the 0.16e upgrade you should copy the ".adobe-digital-editions" folder that the update writes to the internal user memory to your hard drive so that you can have what you would need to make an SD card that ADE will see as your JBL. Also so you have what you need to "restart" an ADE device association. Personally, I am giving ADE a pass, as I am not looking to borrow library books, and I remove all DRM from my purchases, anyway. I do like the way the Adobe Reader Mobile handles .ePub and PDF, though. So you need not even install the ADE on your PC, if you disinfect your purchases, and don't borrow library books. [It might just be me, but if I wanted to make use of ADE I would be sure and remove the .adobe-digital-editions folder, from the JBL's internal memory, and only let ADE mess with an SD card it thinks is my JBL and never my actual JBL.] Luck; Ken |
