Hi everyone,
Just finished up the
iRex DR-800SG review and got it posted on my website yesterday, along with a video review and comparison page with the Sony Daily Edition. I'll be adding more to the written review periodically as I learn more about the iRex, and I still need to try out Newspaper Direct. I'll be adding some more photos shortly too.
I've been reading some threads here and it sounds like some people don't get the green light when charging, but oddly I haven't had that issue; I've charged it twice so far and both times got the green light when finished.
The main glitch I'm experiencing is with PDB files from B&N. Apparently the iRex doesn't support B&N's new EPUB DRM yet so everything downloads in PDB format. But PDB take longer to load and say "counting pages" for several minutes where the page numbers should be. Turning pages takes 2-3 seconds while it's loading. After they've been open for a long time they seem to work a lot better and the page numbers show up but sometimes revert to counting pages again.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
