8. There are a couple instances of, shall we say, amusingly translated English. The menu option to turn on TTS is "English speaking". The option for the MP3 player is "Music Playing...". Unused bookmarks are denoted as Bookmark not be used.
So much for Astak's marketing arguments "written by Americans for Americans". Or perhaps RobertB was only speaking about the manual.

Yet, if they don't even have taken the care to have the English firmware proofed by a decent English speaker (not even asking for a native speaker here, mind you), I feel gloomy about the prospects of a bug-free firmware.
