Just got an eMail (proactively, without me contacting them) from Thom, the service manager of iRex. They follow this (and others) thread and opened a service case.
I have to take back my harsh words from post #25
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...0&postcount=25, of course that's excellent service.
I apologise. I guess, my iLiad just dying on me and in parallel iRex 800 suddenly being totally discharged got me "on the wrong foot".
Thom's eMail:
"I'm the service manager at IREX and have been pointed to your post on mobileread.
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...t=76835&page=9
I created this case to give follow up on the problem you and few other DR800 users experience.
I want to let you know that DR800's standby time should be close to two weeks; 4 days is too short.
We are working on this issue and we'll let you know what and when we will do about this behavior."
Again:
That's brillant service. Same happened before with some of their developers. Haven't seen that with Amazon or B&N or Apple...
