Billi,
Thanks for the firmware, installed

As to the Russian language text-to-speech module - it absolutely exists and was demonstrated in a youtube video (on 602, but also relevant to 902, as the whole new line PRO is advertised there), you can listen to it working yourself:

The new PocketBook readers are basically advertised there as having this Russian language module:
in that video, they list the modules explicitly: Russian, English, French and German.
In the devices I bought there is Italian instead of Russian.
I think I found a bug!
Not fixed by 2.0.3

Dulin's Books,

the problem with the pdf re-flow is that often it leaves zero margins, especially left and top. Although I think I saw even letters cut in half at the bottom - at least in landscape mode for sure.

I now installed 2.0.3, not sure what changes in it, what to look for, anybody knows?
