Hi, David - is there a way to sort books in the library by read/unread? I haven't found a way.

Thanks, David - I had just come back to report this feature after playing with my Touch (ooerr!) this afternoon.

I agree with both Corpsegoddess and Jelby - both of these would be great additions.

Yes, this is really annoying. A way of changing the order to suit the user (Kobo is slowly coming to the idea that the user might want some choice!) would be great.

Ah, yes - I tend to forget about room coolers, as opposed to heaters!



I really don't envy you! I feel almost smug to be sat here in my gloves (circulation to fingers quite bad today) ;)

Thanks, sunilpichamuthu - so far it hasn't got bad enough to need a reset. The problem seems to limit itself by going to sleep after a short freeze, after which it is fine. With a bit of luck Kobo...

I confess to being completely terrified by high temperatures - more than about 23 degrees and I'm ready to lock myself in the fridge. Until recently I could cope with cold really well, but some the...

I have a strong suspicion that it is a learned response - when "ah were a lad" SF was still largely short stories (or the books in the local library were, anyway), and that is what I got hooked on....

Thanks, David. I'll just stick with the easy workaround until Kobo get around to the next upgrade. It isn't as if it is onerous!

Are you affected by the bad temperatures in Oz? I don't even want...

Thanks, Robko. It isn't a problem - I'm unlikely to be buying much else for a few months anyway. The only reason I was there is because I'd come across a couple of books that I was willing to pay...
