I assume they're just talking about putting shortcuts in a "Shortcuts" folder, or something like that, instead of on the home screen.

And regarding 2., what zoom will be available? According to reviews, the DR800 currently has no zoom options in pdf at all. That's not just "set your zoom with the stylus" on page 1, as I do now with pdf with a superflous header / footer, but NO zoom at all!
|
Zoom is being added to the DR800 with this release. Since "hide margins" was the only one they said was being removed, I assume the others will be available, otherwise they would have mentioned them too.

Could a DR800 owner comment on how this works out if these fields are not (properly) filled out? Is this something one can switch on and off? Will it fall back to filename where the title is not filled out in the metadata?
|
I believe it defaults to the filename if there is no metadata, but not sure.

Also, can they please confirm explicitly that all this talk about notes is also still about taking notes in pdf books? Somehow I have the bad feeling that one of the most key features may well be very silently removed here..
|
"Notes" is talking about taking notes on what used to be called templates, and now is it's own note taking application. "Scribbles" are what you are talking about where you can write on an existing PDF file. That is still being supported.

Yeah, if only! In that case though, I do hope they'll be decent enough to make a 1.7.2, for all the mobi pocket users out there
|
I don't think they are allowed to legally. Once they put Adobe on the devices it would be a violation of the Mobipocket license to continue to develop a firmware that supports it.
