I meant external links (internet adresses). Sorry for not making myself clear!

mtravellerh,
how did you find out there are two different PDF viewers in the PB 360? How can I choose between one and the other? |

(screen shot wouldn't work for me for that page, sorry) Long Press of the OK button allows you to choose which viewer to open a particular book. |

Press and HOLD OK button. You get a menu. One of many, many items in the menu is "open with" and you can choose one of two applications. Yesterday I was playing with a locked (no, not DRMed) pdf and in the reflow mode a few words at the end of the page were missing. I haven't upgraded firmware on my machine yet. The machine reads all the books I need it to read in an excellent manner. I am waiting for final firmware version from "guys in Kiev". There is also an improved version of FBReader from a mobileread member scififan, but I haven't got to trying that out either. |

PS: MM is the nickname I gave to my 360. It stands, of course, for Mighty Mouse! Last edited by mtravellerh; 11-29-2009 at 06:50 AM. |

Just curious - what kind of battery life do you get with this device? My BeBook is excellent for this - I can go a week or so without thinking about a recharge (except on holidays, where I sometimes read all day in which case more page turns... ). Thanks.

I pretty much was playing around all the time with MM since Thursday morning and I do not know if she was fully loaded then! It's loading now and I will be able to tell you more exactly when it's empty again!

If you only read (3-4 hours a day) then the battery is enough for 2-3 weeks. If you play games, and a lot of scouring the menu, it is enough for a shorter period. I am not sure whether mtravellerh Pocketbook charged the full, or read on the charge to which the device has come.

It was connected to a PC in the meanwhile but never more than 5 minutes. Just to load a few books, a dozen or so fonts, 30 custom "screensaver" images (**), or to tweak some settings file, quickly disconnect for trying out the I expect that under normal operations (*) a charge should last at least three weeks. (*) reading tvice a day for at least an hour every day, much more than that on weekends (**) I have downloaded lots of M.C.Escher (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M._C._Escher) images, converted them to appropriate format and now, every time my PB shuts down I have different lovely graphics on the screen. (NOT some long dead authors like E-book device I shall not name ;-) ) |
