Maybe it just doesn't overwrite user choices, but it seems to me a single TTS file is about the size of a firmware update so even with compression 4 wouldn't fit.
I hadn't thought of that (that the TTS files might come factory installed along with the books). You're probably right. The SWUPDATE.BIN file is about 200MB and probably isn't compressed (since it compresses by a factor of two in the zip file). The root and ebrmain filesystems take up less space than 200MB, so something is going into /mnt/secure. Maybe it's the dictionaries, which might be licensed by PocketBook separately for different geographic regions.
