Should I Upgrade my Opus?
Hi everyone, happy christmas.
I bought an opus just before Christmas and I am very happy with it. No freezes at all, and its nice and easy to use.
I am a bit uncertain to upgrade the firmware to the new one as mine is working well (its the 1.9 version, so its not that old). I can see by reading the threads on here that its been a major improvement to a lot of people with older firmware, but would it make much difference to mine?
Another thing is that I do not know wether to change to the 1.5 or 2.0 versions. I have not bought many books yet because I have only just got my opus, and the ones that I have already got were converted easily with calibre (great program). I am more used to using mobi files because I used to use them on my PDA before.
The only things I miss are the RSS feeds and the dictionary. I would like to know how you would look up a word on the opus? With a PDA you just click on the word and the dictionary automatically looks up the word. On the opus would I have to close the book and open a dictionary?
Also, do epub books look different/better on an opus than mobi books, or are they the same? I think I could just put on the 1.5 and then the 2.0 firmware but I am a bit scared of it going wrong, and at the moment I am thinking "if it ain't broke don't fix it" so I was wondering if anyone has actually done it and if it is worth it.
Thanks for all the help.
Gray.
