The differences between the two versions should be remedied in less than two weeks.

Did anyone else notice that during the interview with Ectaco at CES there was a comment made about the jetbook opening up to be an open source linux platform ?????

Sure hope it will soon and then my first work will be on user loadable fonts ( I have the code already to read a font from the SD card and replace the internal font) and the second will be hyperlinks that function as a subroutine in the dictionary lookup routine.
