I knew I had seen that method before but for some reason the book I was on wasn't working.

I got a PRS-600 too.

Lovely, lovely lovely.

Just converting my ePocket Mobile bibles into epub format so that I can use the device as a Bible too...

That's for sure. The screen is a dust magnet and I noticed the stylus leaves faint lines if you look close enough in bright light, probably from leftover finger gunk.

Thanks Seventh Son for the double tap, method, I'd hoped there was an easy method. I don't know about the lighting in my apt but I yet to have any glare problems at all, when I saw it at the sony store there was a problem but the type of display lighting is quite different from what I have at home so far I love my new 600! the only thing is without memory cards there doesn't seem to be much memory, so I am having to reorganize my books on more than only memory card.

You can also tap the upper right hand corner 2 times to make a bookmark.

Thank you

Hey, I just had this problem last night. (Just last night, before that, it works fine. But last night my desktop computer wouldn't recognize it)

Here was what I did:

SHUT DOWN the ebook by pressing power switch for more than 3 seconds or use the menu in the settings. SHUT it DOWN, not turn off or sleep - at least this is how the manual describe it :P

Then turn it on, and connect it to the computer. And I think it is back.

I am sorry if I put weird comment myself. It seems that 'a bit annoying reflection' really annoyed some people here...

Well, I think above quote is well said - the reflection is not the end of the world because if you hold the book right, it is not that horrible.

I can understand this trick screen because it is a touch edition! Technology advances so in the future we can get a perfect screen with the touch function!

PS The touch function is very important to me, that's why I turn to PRS 600; The size can not be too big, that's why I turn to PRS 600. i.e. I have no other choice...

I use the "Edit Notes" bar through the options button, but most of the time I just tap the top left hand corner a couple times with my finger or stylus.
