I thought that I share the rest of my findings before i return my Odyssey to Bookeen (they requested it).
When I turn page with the forward or backward buttons, the display is refreshed only periodically (I have not changed the setting). But if I turn the page by swiping the screen, the display is refreshed every time.
I have disabled the accelometer because as I read a lot in a bus while commuting in a bus. Occasinally when the bus shakes, the display turned into landscape mode. Easy to return back to portrait, but annoying. Well. You can turn the screen in landscape mode even when the accelometer is off. Try this: Turn the accelometer off. Enlarge the font or turn page by a swype AND simultaneously turn the unit sideways. You should be able to get landscape mode after few tries. The problem is that returning it back to portrait mode is not so easy: you have to try to do this again or then go to settings, turn accelometer back on and let it turn the display itself. Then back to settings and turn the accelometer back off. The latter way is easier.
The format of the book I read is e-pub.
I have not yet reported this last finding to bookeen, but I will do it shortly.
Please humor me and try these two things with your devices and report back here.
I have decided to return my unit to Bookeen as it might help them to track down these problems. I do want to have it back as otherwise it is quite good.
