Probably slightly off topic, but if a product released on the same platform a few months ago has better functionality than one two years old I have to worry about motivation on the part of Bookeen.
I did wonder about the possibility of firmware working across platforms but as the key sequence to initiate the firmware update is different points to a different bios. Strangely the last cybook update was about 6meg, the cool-er one is over 100meg. |
Cool-er use netronix firmware
