The Build 708 seems rather clean. Granted, I wish it were adding in a better Library, one which supported *REAL* folder support, multiple-file HTML support, better PDF handling, CHM support and all the other things people have asked for, but the install went well on my Cybook Gen3 - and I've got one of the older Gen3s, the kind with only 64MB RAM. I'm happy for now...

Of course, I'd be *happier* if they'd finally release source for the OS and support to allow for a user-supplied splash-screen. The OS appears to allow for splash-screen-only updating, but, as I'm not a Linux hacker, I can't figure out how to do so.
