I have iriver ebook reader. I used a usb charger to power my ebook. i have used it earlier as well. To my disappointment when i returned after some time, while i left the ebook open and usb charger attached, i found the display showing lines and broken text at places. Can any one help me as to what went wrong and what ought to be done.
Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing: are you saying that the screen of that same ebook looks different now after the charging process, from how it looked before you plugged the charger in?

I haven't seen this happen to mine, but I think I normally close the book and switch the device off before I plug in the charger, so we haven't had the same experience.

I'm wondering if it's simply the screen not refreshing properly after the charge. If you close the ebook and re-open it, does the screen still show broken text?

riverdale, which format is the book in? Is it an ePub book, or a TXT file, or PDF ... which format? (I'm asking because they tend to display differently.)

Or perhaps the problem has resolved itself? We can only hope!
