I assume I now can put my books back on. Maybe the problem book will even open this time...
Dear Annk:

Yes, you were receiving help from two of the best. J.S. Wolf is very, very bright and my friend, "Duckey", loves to help and really knows his stuff.

Always, always recharge when the Battery Charge Life Meter gets down to just a little below half. Recharge about 8 hours or so. Even when the green light comes on... keep charging.

My first trip with my Astak 6 inch freaked me. It was the first day I had the device, got on a plane, and it started acting sluggish and required a few resets. I was SO concerned. Turns out that the Battery Charge Life is only a guide and when the charge gets too low the device gets crankey. You do NOT want to drain the battery. Old batteries use to need a complete drain and then recharge. The battery in your Pocket PRO does not need or want this. You will be a lot happier when you recharge when it shows just below half.
