This version introduces a new "Recent books" feature, which permits you to access the last books you opened quickier than going in the Open dialog box.
To use this feature, you'll have to check the "Disable authors quote" option in Settings.

Link: https://pkgs.kobox.fermino.me/bundle.../update/0.1.1/
Source code links were updated as well, they're now in their respective Update bundles.

I'm working on the .adds packages, they should be there soon.

For Mini users: I also got a new kernel with a minimal initrd working, so I'm going to start designing a new recovery/diags partition which would be booted into if the user pressed the power button in the first 3 seconds of boot.
From there, you could do a complete wipe of the SD, reset to defaults or restore the "factory" state of InkBox.
