Anyway to display the clock while reading a book?

Mallaur · 01-26-2009, 11:24 PM

I had just bought a prs700 from a friend who did not like the contrast, he was using the PRS 505 while I was still using the 500 and the upgrade is wonderful for me.

The one thing that bothers me most is the lack of having the clock hack(displaying the clock in the lower right corner) that I had enjoyed on the prs500.

Anyone happen to have a idea to display the clock? I had looked in the settings but just has the option to set the time (only 24hr time, not 12am\pm?)

Thank you for any suggestions.

I could find no way to display the clock at all. I think the only purpose the clock serves is for synchronization -- that way the Sony ebook library program can know which file has been altered most recently.

if you just want to see the clock, you can view it in the "settings" page (accessible from the home page). but i would also like to know if it's possible to display it while reading.

hopefully the dev community will soon have some great new 700 hacks for us.
