Greetings, I recently took receipt of my spiffy new Pocketbook 902 Pro. It has nice PDF rendering for my (mostly) scientific PDF reading, the main reason for purchase. However I have a few simple questions for which I don't see answers, or at least not where I have looked. So here goes:
1. If reading a PDF and there is an embedded link, is there anyway to select it so it opens the onboard browser?
2. I have figured out most of the browser operations, however, is there a convenient way to import bookmarks to it? Also the mobile version gives an error* on the Google home page. Is there any way to make this go away aside from deselecting the mobile page in lieu of the classic page?
*"This page contains the following errors:error on line 3 at column 2500: Entity 'nbsp' not defined. Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error."
3. The BookLand selection is a bit sparse compared to many other sites. Are there any detailed instructions to install the Android Kindle reader on PB902 anywhere or should I just wait for their Android tablet version to show up? Same for Barnes and Noble or Border's reader, I don't care which store I use as long as I can grab Terry Pratchett books…

I have noted one quirk. When I first turn on my PB902, it seems to show a fully discharged battery, but after a few operations (button presses) the battery's bars slowly display until the all of them fill in. This fooled me for quite a while into thinking the battery was somehow discharging while off.
