What would you like in the next Firmware Release? - Page 13

I've been using the NAEB version for a few weeks and while it's nice enough I still find myself using my eBookwise also.

The biggest reason is that if the temp is below 45 degrees, the eBookwise will freeze up after about 15 minutes. Sorta sucks while waiting for the bus in the morning.

In addition, the UI on the Ebookwise is mush more user friendly, the buttons are easier to use, it's much faster, and you can use it in the dark.

Frankly, outside of the weight and obsolete memory card format, I prefer the Ebookwise. And whoever came up with the @#$% square button for the Cybook should be taken out back and beaten. Fine, use is for UI navigation but they should have included dedicated page turn buttons.

I hope you mean 45 °F (7 °C)... I was worried when I first read it, since 45 °C is 113 °F...

was reading a long book and got some experience with bookmarks.
it would be fancy to have some inprovements like:
1. Bookmark number
2. List of Bookmarks
3. Last Read Pager bookmark
4. Line marked bookmarks - using word look-up engine
