Such a polite way to acknowledge the info sharing... Makes me feel so tempted to give you the source but... I'm still resisting!

Quite frankly, I find it a thing of common sense to make that minimal effort, so forgive my sarcasm. I forgive yours

As for the robustness of device, one must give credit to SONY and their hardware quality. I accidentally dropped the device from my table and unfortunally, it fell right onto one corner and left a serious dent in the wooden floor. The casing however remained perfectly intact (a bit of the varnish came off and I had to redo that, but nothing other than that). Also, it's plain (as in some alloy) aluminium casing, which I think is quite uncommon for consumer electronics which usually get only cheap plastic housings.

I too dropped mine, but only from about a foot up and landed on a corner = no damage.

Is everyone linked to Box.com okay? I have not had luck with this link up.

Thanks,
Phil

Thanks. It would be nice to see this update be made available for the rest of the world. But given that we haven't even seen the last update from a year ago, this is just SONY JP taunting us, eh

and does it work for you? I've already tried to insert the foldername with a "/" in both fields but I still get an error message.

Works for me™

Sorry, can't explain it either. Maybe try to a different server and then change back?

this works for me. i can't explain why you are unable to connect.
maybe it has to do with the box account your have. i have a free account, but at 50GB, not the standard free account.

Thanks REM736. I have Box.com synced successfully and working well. I had three extra letters in my instructions on the server address for some reason.
Now having Box, a big SD card, and emailing text if necessary, the Sony is turning into a versatile and productive reading tool. I'm quite happy with it.

3 cons:
1. No backlight sucks
2. No highlight ability with any Zoom sucks
3. The charger port has been finicky (I suspect this is not all units)

Cheers,
Phil
