1. You don't have to update the firmware right away. In fact, there is a new firmware version about to be released, and it may be wise to just wait until then to upgrade. HTML will also be supported, and mobi + epub (non-DRM) are already supported. There are step-by-step instructions on how to upgrade firmware, so it shouldn't be too bad (I never have done it though! ;-)
2. You do realize that although you can view your txt docs on the jetBook, you cannot edit them on the jetBook?
3. Reset the device and try to set the language to English again - that is odd - perhaps you *do* need a firmware upgrade? I take it the mail-order was not from the US.

Good luck, hope all goes well!
According to the manual the only formats supported on the device are pdf and txt. However, I will wait until there is a better suited firmware available. Thank you every body for the kind support!
