I just installed firmware version 1.7.(20120726), for the sole purpose of being able to display and change pdf file names instead of metadata titles. It works, and finally enables my office note-taking workflow* (although it would be even better if this setting applied also to the "recent reading" list on the home screen).

I want to thank everyone who requested this, and Booxtor for representing us toward Onyx. I can now recommend the M92 to my friends without any reservations, not only for reading, but also for handwritten notes. Since this workaround works very well, I changed the priority of my scribble-related requests in the wishlist wiki from "very important" to "nice to have".

*The "scribble" function is still missing several important features, so I use a workaround recommended by someone on this forum. I created a 10-page, blank pdf template and saved it to a new folder within "Books" on the SD card. When a meeting starts, I open the template and write my notes on it. At the end of the meeting, I use the "Merge sketch" function to save the notes (it will be saved as a new file, the original blank template will not be overwritten). I then rename the new file to contain the date and keywords of the meeting. (This was not possible with the previous firmware.) I use the search function to look for keywords within the title if I need to find notes from previous meetings.
