In the thread on desirable firmware updates, only
one user found it worth mentioning the following:
"One feature that would make it easier is if the software were changed so that more then one item were scrolled when a button pressed continuously. It would have been best if it accelerated."
I have only just discovered how terrible it is. I bought a Mobipocket book with many sections in its contents. To get to section 105, I had to hit the button
105 times!!! I couldn't hold the button down to scroll (let alone accelerate!).
Moreover, the endless tapping takes the cursor only from left to right. You can't hit the down button when you're on the left hand side and make the cursor move down the left hand side, for example.
This defect has made using this particular ebook all but impossible. I am
not going to give myself repetitive strain injury just to read a book!
In short, the next firmware update
must make navigation more like the experience of using the arrow buttons on a PC. This is not an option - it's a
necessity.
Bookeen, are you listening???
