Hi all,

Searched the forum but didn't find an answer so... anyone know how to format the Vox's drive? (Not asking how to do a factory default).

Note that factory defaulting does not actually wipe the Vox's drive (despite the fact that it says it does). I have tried the volume+ and power on default and the in-menu defaults, but all my personal files are still on the drive... (the home button and power on default doesn't work for me?)

I need to return my Vox, as from day one the battery has never lasted longer than four hours on a full charge. At first this was four hours of wireless usage, browsing, downloading etc. but now the Vox will not last longer than four hours even in airplane and silent mode, with application sync turned off and all irrelevant application processes stopped (i.e., anything at all that could drain the battery has been stopped/turned off). At one point I charged the Vox to full around 7 pm at night, left it in sleep mode with the above settings, and the battery was dead at 6 am in the morning...

This has made my Vox unreliable as an e-reader. The staff at my local Chapters assures me this is unusual and will switch my unit. For anyone else with issues like this, I've been told the bookstores will honour returns on the Vox until January 15th owing to the holidays, regardless of when it was bought.

Any info on how to zero the Vox's drive would be appreciated.

Thanks,
