Thanks for the quick reply Harry. I did as you said - only possible it seems by opening Windows Explorer and not My PC, where there's just a window with no higher or lower levels. I did get the update file installed and working.

It's frustrating though, as I don't think the Bookeen instructions are very clear. First, you can't do anything if the Gen3 is not switched on and connected to your computer - no drives will appear on your computer. Ok, once you've copied the update_kernel file to the SD card drive, switch off the Gen3. Remove the SD card, switch on the Gen3, insert card, etc.

I hate to take up your time, but could you outline for me the procedure of installing dictionaries on the Gen3? I've used the dictionary lookup facility but don't get back to the book I'm reading with the 'back' button. Either I haven't installed the dictionaries correctly, or something is wrong with my device.
