Except now they have v0.35g out for beta testing. It seems like Ectaco is really starting to take firmware upgrades seriously.

Gosh, don't even bother with v.35g. It totally breaks epub's zoom feature.

I wonder why ectaco releases firmware that has bugs the size of a bus? I could spot the awful bug within 2 minutes of use. Don't they even bother to test them for 10 minutes before releasing them? Even if it is a beta release, it's such an obvious bug that it's an insult to users and a waste of our time.

Edit: I tried a few more epub. Looks like this release tries to fix the zoom level (ie font size) bug. The text doesn't reflow for some epubs, but it seems to work for others.

Can anybody please provide here download link for 35a version? I'm not able to find any working link for this firmware version and I'm not able to upgrade to 35d from my 33g version.
Thanx as lot.

Thanx Kralik, but I have found this thread and tried the link. Ectaco has removed this firmware version from it's FTP site, so presented link is dead.
Is possible to share the firmware 35a2 somewhere else ? (Rapidshare, for exemple). Thank you.
