Oh, also, don't forget to de-activate your device from ADE before upgrading, because you may encounter the problem with reading your ADE books, and then activate your reader again with new fw. Good luck! |

I've just peeked on the Russian forum, and the stable version should be out next Monday - the feeling I got is that things are actually moving for real over there, just hope I'm not wrong!

they still insist the "release candidate" (i.e. post alpha and beta testing) should be out tomorrow - if it does, it will be the first time in a very long time that they have said something and actually delivered on it - in which case I might even start being hopeful again

The RC is out and available for all "official" Beta-testers, but I signed not to release anything, so put your hopes on the GIK

Handwritten notes doesn't still work for Djvu files. Multitasking works very well (it's really fast). Last edited by Shinra tensei; 10-03-2011 at 01:31 PM. |
