After 72 hours (three days) with 538 the battery meter shows 80%.

I suspect that "80%" figure is spurious, but it is interesting to see how long it'll last for!

So still some bugs in the newest firmware, causing energy drain (some unnecessary active process?). We should write some angry email to bookeen. I am curious whether some bookeen employer reads this web.

And for me that can read paper books for days and just read with the Cybook 0-15 minutes per day that time is important. And since I then just occasionally read then the boot up time is unacceptable so I cannot turn it off. Email them and suggest an option to choose "good battery life and slower response" or "bad battery life and faster responnse". |

50% after 148 hours and dead after 158 hours with 538. So with the Cybook in library mode the result is:

Hi all,
I've a Cybook Gen3 with 708 firmware version. I'd like to return to 538 version but I mailed now bookeen support and they told me that that version is not more available. Anyone can tell me where can I find it or can send it to me? Thanks in advance! Domenico |

Just wanted to spare you the heart attack I had When I tried to do that, as bookeen had kindly sent me the link to the firmware and the device didn't work properly. |
