Time for all iRex DR fans to rejoice as the iRex engineers have just issued firmware 1.6 for the Digital Reader device.

  • Improved battery life: 10% more!
  • PressReader V2: Introducing enhanced navigation features including easy-to-read text views, article hyperlinks, and interactive tables of content
  • PDF documents now open faster
  • Improved on-screen keyboard: The on-screen keyboard will now provide faster feedback
  • Disabled automatic scribble: When opening a WritePad template, the Pencil does not turn on automatically
  • Disabled blinking LED: The Main LED will no longer blink while the device is idle
  • Various bug fixes
