Dear All:
Several people have noted a desire to go back to the December Firmware Upgrade. It is presently NOT on
www.theEZreader.com; but it is still up on:

Here is the problem in a nutshell. The March and April firmware upgrades added a much-requested Visible Clock. There was no second battery for this clock and it runs off the main battery. Therefore, it significantly shortens the battery charge life.
IF you shut off the device, then the clock does not run and needs to be reset. If you leave the device on, you do not need to reset the clock but you will get significantly less battery charge life.
That is the choice IF a clock is important to you! You can choose not to go with the clock. That would be the December Firmware Upgrade mentioned above.
I am always honest with you and this is what we have right now. We hope the factory can solve this choice in the future. But, right now, I recommend using the December Firmware Upgrade and I am sorry. At least you know where to find it:
