And I've also noticed that if you hit <forward><forward>, the second forward takes a lot longer, generally about as long as going back a page.

I also have noticed unexplained unusual page flip delays, somehow inconsistent and seemingly random. Maybe there are hidden housekeeping tasks like memory defrag?

You didn't read my question in the way I intended it, I think. I'm aware of this function of course, but it was specifically mentioned in the first post of the big "firmware update" thread that this would be an updated feature. I only read a little bit of the way into that thread, so maybe you're referencing something I'm not aware of, but my question is about the fact that this being listed as a feature implies some new functionality is being added to the current shutdown option. I'd assume that the most likely incarnation of this would be an optional setting that makes the power switch perform a full shutdown instead of just putting the device into sleep mode, but it could be any number of things (like the power switch simply being changed to shut the Reader off, a more easily accessible shutdown menu, or some combination of buttons that can be pressed to perform a full shutdown), as well as just a mistake on the part of the person reporting that as a new feature.
Any clarification on that would be great! |
