hi all, I think hyperlinks do work - in bebook one they get numbered and you enter the number to jump links, in bebook mini (which I only just aquired) I thought the bottom right arrow key wasnt working on a pdf until i realised it was jumping to the next link and pressing ok button jumped to the page - unfortunately i couldnt see an easy way of jumping back.

Ive only had it a few hours but my main grumble on the bebook mini - no case!!!!! my main love on the mini is the jog wheel/switch!! (for flipping pages)

The hyperlinks in an EPUB only works on the Bebookmini, not on the regular BeBook. For some reason Jiinke updated the V5 firmware but not the V3.

I am having trouble working out how to come back to the page I was reading after following a hyperlink in epub. There's no obvious way that I can see. Anyone know how to do this? I tried bookmarking the page, but for some reason the usual way of navigating to the bookmark doesn't appear to work in epub files.

Bookmarking works differently on ADE files (ePUB and PDF). It is similar but improved over the bookmarking on MOBI files. Press the 6 key to set a bookmark. Press and hold the 6 key to view the bookmarks you have set and to select one to go to. This permits more than 5 bookmarks. Use the 9/0 keys to change pages to view more bookmarks.

More details:
1. Bookmarks mark page numbers. For different zoom levels their may be more than one virtual page for each page number so it may not mark the exact location.

2. To remove a bookmark bring up the screen to display bookmarks and press and hold the button for the bookmark you want to remove.

Thank you very much for the explanation, DaleDe.

I know the visible screen surface looks tough but the screen BEHIND the visible one is delicate and I learnt the expensive way that the leather case it comes with does NOT protect the screen. As DA say pack it in a rigid box when traveling and do not expect the leather case to protect the internal screen.
