My bebook last a lot longer with the bebook firmware as with OI. I find it a noticeable difference.

My experience is just the opposite, so I suspect it may be due to user usage patterns. With the flaky BeBook firmware I was reading mostly mobi format, and powered off over night. With the more stable OI firmware, I read mostly in epub or fb2 format, and have not turned the device off for over a month.

That is common, e.g. the Nokia N810 have the same property. It is built to be on alla the time. Booting takes a lot of power.

Whew *picture me wiping brow*.
I'd been having trouble with .lit files for a while, as most of you know, I've posted about it before. I finally gathered up my courage in both hands and updated the EZ Reader firmware to Jinke's Jan. 20 release. The whole reader seems livelier in performance, and opens .lit files a lot faster than it did. I was holding my breath the whole time, though - updating that kind of thing makes me nervous. |

Thanks Dale. It still won't open massive .lit files though. Alex Haley's Roots just kills it.
