Ermine on PE

Hi All, Thanks for snow and Entourage for the so-long-waited release of Ermine.
I just upgraded my pocket Edge this morning, and have an overall great experience:
* Now 5 screens are available , that's more space for shorttcuts and widgets.
* email, browser, calendar ... all seems to be stable .
* Reader is ok too. I love the fact to be able to switch fonts. THe Rotating feature is really awsome. It does not allow to comment directly on the e-ink side, but still allow to highlight and take notes on the lcd side ... Now an external keyboard is worth it !

* Within the calendar app, there was a setting allowing to *SYNC* a calendar. .. I did not went further, but it would rock ! I was able to edit an event with Jorte using the google calendar ( which I couldn't before.)

* I still have to check on the bluetooth side, wether it is now possible to connect to an usb keyboard.

So far so good. The upgrade seems 99.9% stable (in a hour time of experimentation ...) and it brings nice features on.

Qwill.
