As you all probably know by know, I have been on the Chinese site, doing stuff.
How would like if you no longer can get in touch with your decade old friends.
Reason, their ISP has blocked your IP because of irregular usages and
intermingled IP addresses outside of bounds ? And when you try some other
secondary ISP over http - you suddenly pickup a conversation in Chinese ?
IP addresses seem hijacked in other words. IT JUST OCCURED !

Well, I have figured it out, but it will take time to lift the my blocked
IP addresses. And somehow negotiate an exception. It was somewhat
understandable. But what about the voice over IP ? I only had the voices,
but it turned out to belong to a Chinese introduction of Duokan-Kindle on
YouTube from a burried browser window !! Talk about odd mix of
circumstances ! But odd things happen.

I am clever in fooling myself
That's scary. I imagine that each time one of us goes on their site, some censor somewhere gets a little buzz.

Hi all, if you don't mind, I could help you report bugs you found to Duokan forum.

I don't know if you guys still struggling on capturing screenshot

the shortcut key is "shift+space"

it used to be shift+alt+g, but it seems to change since the k3 version has released.

the shortcut key change did mention on a post, but it is in chinese.

some of chinese guys just don't read help manual at all (like me...), since no one found that fault on the help document, so maybe the duokan team did not pay attention at it.

so far, the "usb net driver" is allow you to connect your kindle to PC(windows) via usb cable to login to several website (on KINDLE) to download fiction online which be using windows internet connection.

I don't know if western world has this business. In China, there is a large amount of writer write online and update regularly for their work, they usually write them in very casual tone, so a lot of people like them.

So basically every major site of China has these sub-sites allow readers to read this Serial story online.

....er, I think I went too far... so far, Duokan only allow user to logon those websites via usb cable and it is kind of lame... but I am looking forward when it can implemented via Wi-Fi or even 3G.

for your interest, the "shift" key in Chinese is call 上档键 which only old people use that term and by now we call shift as shift when we mention it.

Hi Hugo,

You just edit the first line of: FontInfo_yw.txt

Which is in: DK_System\system\Profiles

I looked for who originally posted this info, and I couldn't find it.

Welcome hugo9578 !

Oh, this was nice ! Finally some screenshots ! So you read that crazy language ? I don't know how many times I have tried to look up a sign, only to experience that I am sort of unable to keep it in memory and you loose track and they all start to look the same. I suppose the difficulty may be that for a Chinese, the sign express some sound - and without such knowledge, it is hopeless difficult ? Need some sleep

Thanks for posting them too, montalex ! oh, so that is how that playlist looked like. Somehow, I think the old player - circular - looked much nicer. Btw. perhaps alt-shift-G was better too, as then it is the same as Amazon's.

Hmm....wonder - there are someone that seem to write something - she may be Chinese - it is in English, and it is totally .. hmm.. weird. Like she would tell what took place in some television soap opera. Of course, if it is like you say, then it could make sense.

- probably We talk funny too !

In the mail headers, I found some stranged number attached to my machine identity, and they did keep track of me, as I could open another browser window without having to constantly re-enter or do a new login. If any I say is correct, then - my advise is to restart your machine before sending email.

I am not sure, but a restart is a lot less troublesome then being block.

My mood lifted when I saw the activity on this site. It got bottom low when I received my ordered DX. I needed something to test the code you struggled with, afraid to upgrade my own K3 which worked with printscreen and other stuff. But without wifi - this model is totally useless for my needs. And with import, I get a much nicer laptop then this crap. I may be particular negative now, but .. it is for use on my local network, not sending my personal files to Amazon. Kindle DepressionXGreat - I have lost sleep over this.

Is there an activity to make a webkit browser in the Duokan forum?
Thanks.
