I tried to understand the this by reading the thread from start to finish, but I still don't get what "this" means.
I did some googling on the german tolino site (mytolino.de) and found the following description for updating Tolino's (the Shine excepted):
Quote:
  1. Klicken Sie auf den Download-Button und speichern Sie die Datei mit dem Namen update.zip auf Ihrem Desktop ab. Bitte beachten Sie, dass die Datei von Ihrem tolino eReader nur unter diesem Dateinamen als Update-Datei erkannt werden kann.
  2. Verbinden Sie ihren tolino eReader mithilfe des mitgelieferten USB-Kabels mit dem Computer und öffnen Sie im Datei-Explorer die Verzeichnisansicht TOLINO des eReaders.
  3. Kopieren Sie nun die Datei update.zip von Ihrem Desktop bzw. individuellen Speicherort direkt in das Hauptverzeichnis ihres tolino eReaders. Trennen Sie danach die USB-Verbindung, indem Sie den tolino eReader am PC auswerfen.
  4. Bitte warten Sie nun ca. 10 Sekunden, bis das Software-Update auf dem eReader verarbeitet wurde und starten Sie das Gerät nun neu, indem Sie den An-/Ausschalter für ca. 2 Sekunden drücken. Sobald das Kontext-Menü erscheint, bestätigen Sie hier bitte mit Neu starten. Das Software-Update wird nun automatisch installiert.

  1. Click on the download button and save the file named update.zip on your desktop. Please note that the file can only be recognized as an update file by your tolino eReader under this file name.
  2. Connect your tolino eReader to the computer using the USB cable provided and open the TOLINO directory view of the eReader in the file explorer.
  3. Now copy the update.zip file from your desktop or individual storage location directly to the main directory of your tolino eReader. Then disconnect the USB connection by ejecting the tolino eReader from the PC.
  4. Please wait about 10 seconds until the software update has been processed on the eReader and then restart the device by pressing the on/off switch for about 2 seconds. As soon as the context menu appears, please confirm here with Restart. The software update will now be installed automatically.
Is that what "this" is referring to in your posting?
