Overall, I really like this firmware update. The improvements to CBZ are very extensive, and will easily make the forma *the* premium B&W E-ink comic/manga reading device.
Finally got built in full page e-book reading. This might not matter so much for the Forma, with all the screen real estate, but makes a big difference on the Clara HD.
There are, of course, a few bugs/flaws. Since I'm testing this on an unsupported device, these might just by a symptom of the update not being ready for the Clara.
Disabling the footer dies not automatically disable the fast page flip feature. If you are reading a Kepub with no footer and try to select a word in the bottom corners, you'll have a hard time of it. Fast page flip can still be disabled by editing the .conf file. It would be nice if, on the Forma, fast page flip used only the buttons rather than screen corners.
This update introduced a problem with dragging text selection handles. Most of the time, trying to drag the handle to change a selection of text will not work on the first time, and you have to lift your finger and try again for it to work.
