Unfortunately the fix isn't really a fix. It's just a stopgap that doesn't work well. Basically, if you want to read library ebooks, you'll need either an iLiad (I have not hear they won't work) or a Windows based computer. The problem is that the Gen3 doesn't have a proper clock built in. So when you turn it off, it loses the time/date that it was set to via the fix. I am surprised that Bookeen does not have a clock. That was a rather bad idea given the library mobi format ebooks. You by the Gen3 thinking you can read them and you cannot.
