Seems to happen with txt files in internal memory or one directory down from root on SD card. (I don't go more than one directory deep on the SD card.)

I've never had the eject/re-insert SD card suggestion fix the issue. I get the card ejected/re-inserted messages behind the hourglass animation, but I'm still hung.

Seems I will frequently (though not always) get the hourglass when I go into the main Settings menu (from the start-up screen, where you can select Books, Audio Books, Pictures, Settings) and make a change.

I've had a reset get me out of the hourglass sometimes. Other times, I go right back into the hourglass when I try to open a book after the reset.

Reseting and going into diagnostics mode, then reset again also didn't break me out of the hourglass loop.

This has happened with various txt files.

Connecting the jetBook to my laptop via the USB cable, does break it out of the hourglass loop.

I'm running v0.33g, upgraded from v0.30 that came with the jetBook. I didn't use the jetBook much on v0.30 so I don't know if the issue started happening after the upgrade.
