Hi,
Just to add to this thread. I have updated my wife's Astak a few weeks ago to the April firmware and now the battery barely lasts towards the end of the day. She tends to lock the device and tends to read quite a bit of epub and fb2 (cool reader 3). I tried both types of chargers (usb+pc, wall charger) and charging over night (6+ hours). I am considering falling back to Dec 2009 firmware which is what I got the device with and trying that again. It was fine before the upgrade. I am using an SD card. It's the same card that came with the ebook reader.
I'll try to post an update once I manage to flash her reader to previous firmware. I'll give it a few days to see how the battery life goes.
Thank you,
Gena01
