off to the russian forum to check whats happening with that.

edited to add: no mention of the battery drain issue on The-eBook forum yet... have actually registered there and posted the question.
hope this gets resolved as i am really liking this version... very fast and responsive.
I saw your two posts on The-eBook forum. Now you are our official ambassador.

Buggins posted new V5 firmware about 3 hours after your second post that fixes the memory leak problem in CoolReader, and *might* also fix the battery problem some have seen. I have not tried it yet, but since my battery has been holding up OK my opinion of this new one probably does not matter.

lol i am happy to be bringing down the iron curtain
i have posted a question on the-ebook re battery issue. Might be too early to tell how this version affects the battery though.
I've been so busy installing and un-installing all this firmware and reading forums, i havent actually had time to USE my reader in the last couple of days!!

Can you change the .pdf file on this firmware? do we need an ini file for it to work? What should I do to change it?

The battery seems stable when the reader is left in keylock mode, but when actively reading with CoolReader the battery seems to fall quite rapidly. I saw a 25% drop in just 50 pages or so, and I had just done a fresh recharge after installing 602.
