We know some of you use the 8" device not only for book reading, and miss features the 10" device carries. Although you could have known they were not part of the product, you can still hope, I know. A few of them are brought back as an advanced option in 2.0 (folder view, scribble and zoom options in PDF), others may follow later.

well so you essentially are confirming us that those features are not on dr800 for marketing decisions..
personally I don't think that those are wise decisions.. let's say that the real difference between the 2 devices is already in the screen size.. I personally would like to have those 2 inches more on the screen that no zoom can substitute.. it's not worth to have negative feedback on internet on a good product to protect one that you are going to substitute soon..
in any case all that we need and want is:
- that the flip bar works correctly in panning mode: I mean reached the end of the page it must make turn the page to the next one starting from the beginning of it. We don't even need the continuous mode..
- to have the full screen mode, that must be compatible even with panning mode..
besides that it's obvious that you have to correct the ridiculous bug that you introduced in rc1 about the cut off of the pdf bottom etc.. and in my opinion you can even take away that new cycling icon on the bottom bar that is not useful at all (too little and too slow) and introduce an option in the settings to turn off the pen.. like in dr1000
in any case those are all changes that if I had the source code of uds I could introduce in less than a day.. nothing difficult.. (well maybe the bug can be difficult to find)
