This morning I was able to get the New York Times working regularly.

I found that if I downloaded the feed directly to the reader, or to an SD card, it would act 'flakey' or unreliable. If I downloaded to my hard drive (in OS X), connected the reader and then transferred it to main memory, it went okay. This with file output type set to EPUB..

As an aside, the reason I had selected EPUB was because I had thought it was more relaible (that was just the general feeling I got from lurking here and reading)than LRF output. I am going to try saving feeds using the same procdure I've done here, but instead using LRF and see if that makes it any better.

thanks

Tom
