3.) After reboot, I wanted to select my book in the home page and it frooze again.
I hope this is just a software problem, not a hardware one. Looks for me, as if there is a race condition between the update of the dictionary box and the cursor movement.
Anyone noticed that?

Thank you Knuthmeyer! Mine keeps freezing too. I tried the "hold the on/off switch for 15 seconds advice from the user manual and nothing happened. I tried your "long long time" advice and it finally reset, indexed and came back. I must have held the on/off switch 30-60 seconds!
