Hello everybody,

Last week I purchased the PocketBook Pro 903. I like this e-reader a lot but I have problems running additional apps on the device. I tried to install games and other apps like poterm (http://pocketbook-free.sourceforge.net/en/index.shtml) on the device but they don't work. I copied the various .app files into the applications dir on the internal device. When I choose applications from the main menu they show up but when I start them I get the error that the application can't be started. OS version is 2.0.5. I even tried a shell script hello.app with the contents:
#!/bin/sh
echo "Hello World"

but I get the same error. Is there some protection system running on the device which prevents additional applications from running or do I have to do something more to run additional apps?
