I'm fine if they work on their official version etc. for regular consumers, but why not let the rest work their way. They wouldn't lose anything. I'm really buffled that after 2+ years my reader has still problems with READING a book. I use no features, just reading and yet it still fails quite often (stucking, freezing, forgetting the page I last read etc.). Isn't that ridiculous for a device whose sole role should be reading?
I'm realistic, I'm fine with the HW actually. Maybe not super fast etc. but it's ok. It's just the software that sucks big time and I don't believe it gonna change (soon m96 will be off the shelf, same as m92 was etc. and we will get 0 updates)

a-reader device is not a Tablet, but some makers (Onyx, Pocketbook) think just put an e-ink screen + Anfroid is enougth for the Job,, so if their applications are buggy , so the community will do the job.
I own N96ML, 450€ is a lot of money, i am an epub-reader, formatt 9,7 is perfect to read epub and some PDF format, in PDF format N96ML do the job, not in epub format!.
Only Sony anderstand what electronic reading is, but Sony stopped development!
Sorry for poorr english!
