Part II of my review

Thank you all for comments.

I have promised that the review will be continued.
There are quite a few important things I did not mention in Part I.

You can connect the PB to the computer using provided USB cable. When you connect it to Linux you can mount it as you would mount a standard umass device - an USB memory key or an external disk. My favourite Linux distro mounts the PB automatically as /media/EB600 Main Memory.
Here is list of files that were on my PB by default.
I have redacted the list (in case you notice a few missing bytes). I have deleted most of the screenshots pictures, some of my books and some of Dictionaries. I do not know what dictionaries are included by default in USA or European version and I do not want you to complain that you are missing some on your unit.
I have also loaded Droid font. You can find legal version of font - it was commissioned by Android developers and is published under Apache licence.

Kacir@Gloria ~ $
They say that One picture is worth thousand words, so I decided to take a few screenshots. Thank you Fokrosigan for the tip.
In order to take screenshots you have to go to the menu for key mapping and remap the "off" key to the "Screenshot". The Off key is the only key you can remap to make screenshot, this is why I could not find it.

Description of pictures:
Pix-00.png - This is the main menu. Please notice the names of two most recently opened books.
Pix-01.png - the same menu in landscape mode
Pix-02.png - after clicking on the settings menu you get to the settings screen[s] - this is example in landscape mode
Pix-03.png - Screen 2 of the settings menu
Pix-04.png - One of the example books in landscape
Pix-05.png - page 2 of the example book
Pix-06.png - menu from inside FBreader. Icons mean: go to page, exit book, search inside book, bookmark, close this menu, rotate screen (auto or four basic rotations), notes (including text clipping), dictionary, settings.
Pix-07.png - menu from inside FBreader. Icon settings selected
Pix-08.png - the same book, larger font
Pix-09.png - page 2 in the example book, landscape mode
Pix-10.png - Even bigger font. Please note that in FBreader you can set ANY font size in settings. Then you can enlarge fonts by steps by pressing key up and down
Pix-11.png - We are back in the main menu, portrait mode. We go into the Library
Pix-12.png - Library, basic view. Please note icons indicating that some books have been opened
Pix-13.png - In library hold OK and select "search". This on screen keyboard appears. Notice that keyboard screen is divided into 5 areas. You click up, down, left, right or OK to get to the upper lower, left ... etc area, and then you navigate further.
Pix-14.png - I have clicked left
Pix-15.png - ... and then down
Pix-16.png - here we see result of search
Pix-17.png - click OK to accept letter

I was allowed to upload only 18 screenshots, so I will make another 2 posts
