Thanks for the congrats.
Am finding that this Astak reader isn't intuitive at all. It took me forever to get the firmware downloaded, after the instructions said to hold down the volume buttons on the right side of the reader before pushing the ON button. It sure would have helped if they had said the LEFT side buttons instead of the right. I spent three hours trying to update the firmware and after finally getting my Digital Editions/Overdrive book loaded on the Astak, I could only open the book once. Now it doesn't work at all. Will charge it up overnight and try again tomorrow morning.
I must admit that so far my Kindles were so much easier to start up and use.
