Can't type accents?
How come even when I switch to different keyboard layouts I cannot write accents? Or am I missing something? That's the only feature I hate about this ereader.

Well, I don't know what accented letter you're trying to type but my UK keyboard will let me type an accented version of a character by doing a long press on the key.
E.g. if I long press the 'e', I'm offered a mini pop-up of 'e' grave, acute, circumflex or umlaut.

Fantastic, it works. That's what I needed to know. Thank you.

It's the same on the x50. At least on mine. I do have PRS on them though, if that makes any difference.
