Amazon assumes most of their users don't Have A Clue* (which is reasonable ) and they update silently. We have a workaround for that here: Kindle_Touch_Hacking#Blocking_Official_Updates

Eschwartz, THAT SHIRT IS BLOODY BRILLIANT!!!!
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction here. I will check the workaround this weekend

Other than that, it is much the same -- except that the Kindle Collections plugin takes the opportunity to add fine-grained customization of which collections get created, and a few other fancy things.

Well that sounds really promising. I recall having a blast with tweaking Calibre to make the Sony eat my s**t the way I wanted it to. The guys behind Calibre and its plugins are the real inventors around ereading, if you ask me. Without them, I'd never have reached a comfy zone for reading outside paper^^

Do not apologize for not sharing the same native language as us. We understand, and will bear with you.
(And I do note that many foreigners speak better English than some Americans. I have seen and heard some atrocious English from the people who REALLY should know better. FAR worse than yours.
Your English is quite good, from what I have seen of it. )

Haha thanks for flattering
I just felt my verbosely writing might seem a bit awkward to you natives here, therefore my apology. And yes, same here with natives speaking a, ehm, "reduced" version of what was formerly know as German language. Do you know the movie "Idiocracy"? It's a stupid, hilarious one, but there are certain messages it just got right
I will wait for the PocketBook InkPad and have a look at the Touch Lux 2 and Ultra, as soon as their new FW is rolled out. In the meantime, I will toy with Calibre and Kindle until the Voyage is available over here AND jailbreakable.
If Pocketbook again turns out to have displays inferior to my PRS-T2, I will go the Kindle route... Thanks again for your insight and (hehe) please be prepared for more geek talk, should I go Kindle...
