A short glimpse on OS 2.8

Plus, as with sleep mode, there isn't any code to just go grab. Some clever person would have to code it just for the iLiad.

Hey, I know a clever person! How about if Scotty1024 does it?

Scotty1024, I say again what I said before. If I end up buying one of these things, it will be because of the work you've done, and iRex should compensate you. (Meaning no disrespect to the others who have also worked hard to get the word out about the iLiad, or dig into its mysteries, just that the issues Scotty has been working on most directly relate to my willingness to potentially purchase.)

Thank you for the clear explanation of the differences between the various power saving modes. I think you may be right about the language problem. But I think you may also be right that it isn't in iRex's biggest interest to find the workaround to this problem. Looks like it will be up to the user community-- if iRex will come through and publish the full SDK and make it possible for ordinary mortals to install 3d party SW.

On the iRex forums, I recommended that iRex find a vendor who is more interested in the consumer market and do an OEM deal. I think Scotty1024 should be the chief engineer in that organization.

The following is my wishes and question about iLiad V2.8 upgrade.
I wish
1. The rotate direction of landscape mode can be clockwise and count-clockwise.
2. The flipbar definition about direction of page-turning can be different in landscape and portrait modes.

3. In addition to 'fit to screen', iLiad also has 'fit to (page) width' and 'fit to visible (width of text)'.

4.iLiad can further search the text inside the files.

5.WLAN supports user defined static address and other encrypted method beside WEP.

My question about subscribbing PDF:
Is the handwrited annotation directly recored/embedded into PDF-file as Adobe Acrobat and Foxit Reader do, or just recorded in the BMP/JPG/PNG files?

I hope it will be the conventional highlight, underline, annotation functions on PC. Then, exchange your annotation will be smooth and fast.

Let's magine a teacher annotates students' PDF files and sends those back to student to see the handwriting correction, score, annotation.
It may be a new education style and market. (if iLiad cheap enough. ;-))

I strongly agree that!
