I downloaded and installed the current build a few days ago, you know, the one that is supposed to be a "fix" over the latest 1.1 update. Well since I have done this, the Cybook is giving me nothing but problems. It freezes at the load screen (the one with the picture of the Cybook) It does frequent hiccups if I leave it sitting for a few moments, it will reload or refresh itself which sends me to other pages in the book. It now eats battery power as if it is lunch time. I now find myself having to recharge the device every night if I want the battery to stay charged. And the commands for moving through the books list has become significantly less responsive and error prone.

Has anyone else experienced this with the new build? It is driving me nuts and I am very close to returning the cybook and going with a different device. The thing has become nearly unusable.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
