I'm curious about how much support Adobe gives to companies integrating the Adobe Reader Mobile SDK with their product. I know Adobe has a group just for this. From what I gather Bookeen is using the Adobe product for EPUB. So how much help are they getting. Or could it be a completely different issue unrelated to the EPUB support.

Maybe it has to do with how locked down the reader is about accepting new firmware. It would make sense that the new firmware being so different the old one won't allow you to upgrade to it thus requiring you to send them the device to flash the chip directly. Though I do remember something about them flashing the device at a meet up a while back...

This is all pure speculation of course.

That's my story.
Other than the choice of replacement reader, that's my story and sentiment as well.
