The current firmware renders the device unusable. Opening a very light app (Readcube Papers) takes about 3 minutes. With previous versions, the same app (also same version) opened almost instantly.
And yes, I and many others also tried to factory reset. Unfortunately, it's more than apparent that Onyx tries to force customers into buying a new device, which is a little excessive considering that they sold me this ereader about 3 years ago. I may indeed buy a new one in the future, but it won't be an Onyx device, that's for sure.

In the meantime, it would be very helpful if somebody could upload an older version (pre v3.0) of the Max 2 firmware.
