I'm looking forward to the left handed page turning - thanks for recognising that not everyone is right handed.

Thanks you very much.
I'm testing now, and I like the new feature about turn pages. High-lighting and annotation works great for Kobo-books (free epubs don't have this option) Waiting for a spanish dictionary :-) |

Unfortunately, the microSD problem remains in this release. Too bad because there are some nice improvements. Back to 1.9.10.

Release notes
That's nice that they now have a release notes button in the 'Device Information' section of the settings..

Shortlist Add/Delete bug fixed
Seems the bug that keeps placing you back on page one of the books/shortlist when you toggle the shortlist 'heart' on/off has been fixed.. Thanks!

Try again, Wes. It worked fine over WiFi for me (7 minutes after you tried).

I've managed to get Desktop 2.1.3, and have watched as the 1.9.12 upgrade gets downloaded.
Upon disconnect, I am prompted to do the upgrade, and, when the upgrade finishes it shows the release notes from 1.9.11. I get the same result if I do a WiFi based sync on the Touch itself. Ideas? |

Peter--what version do you show on the device. Mine is 1.9.12 (r33689, 10/13/11)? The notes say v 1.9.12-10/7/11.
