Release 67 (on my HD 3 at any rate) defaulted with the double-press to "disable touch screen" set on. But someone complained that they didn't have that feature, so I was going to show them how to change it, but when I turned it off, there was no choice to turn it back on (in either ePub or PDF). PocketBook support's fix was to reset the HD 3 (which I did and found out there was a lot of things I had to do to get it back to normal). Like an idiot I tried it again. Same result, so I downgraded the version (this time) reset the double-press "touch screen off" and then upgraded back to 67, which was easier. (Or maybe I've reversed the order, maybe reset was the second "fix.")

At any rate, if this "disable touchscreen" selection is back in with 68, and there's a choice to turn it back on again, that sounds good. I should probably upgrade to test it.
