The 8 level grey scale also does a great job on displaying illustrations. Try the MP3!! This has a great stereo sound system and takes a standard headphone jack.

Yes, do charge it fully before use. IF you are going to have any problems with a new eBook Reader most of it will be traced to low charge. Always remember that the battery charge gauge is just a general guide. They are not super-accurate. I recharge whenever it gets down a little below halfway.

DO go to the website: www.theEZreader.com and check the FAQ sheet. That is updated often and it is filled with helpful tips and ideas.

I do work for Astak and I welcome you to this forum and to being a Pocket PRO partner!!
Thanks! I'm loving it so far. It came almost entirely charged (i.e. 3 or 4 gicks), and I've charged it a bit so far. I'm going to charge it fully tonight.

Also... about all the file formats... any chance of getting custom font support on more of them? I *love* the font Gentium... and part of why I bought an EZ Reader was the custom font support. Now, I don't mind having to convert to a different format, but it'd be nice if it worked with more formats.

Awesome ebook reader!
