Seems like Jinke only agreed to do it reluctantly. The wording "The factory that makes Pocket PRO and EZ Reader is willing to do a firmware upgrade. BUT... they want me to poll. We may not get everything so please pick three items that you want to see." It shouldn't be that are willing to do it, conditionally - if they were truly interested in supporting the product, they would have already been releasing fixes for the many shortcomings. Even the "may not get everything so please pick three items" rankles. Why wouldn't they be keen to fix all the problems? We shouldn't have to beg them to improve their product. Sadly, I think Junke have moved on to newer products. Happens often in the fast moving world of consumer electronics.

Sorry to be negative. Luckily, the latest lbook firmware is quite useable for my reading habits, so at least I am not left needing to upgrade to a newer device for a while.
