I had a strange problem last night, was reading an nls book last night and the booksense just stopped, nothing would work, no clock, nothing!! It wouldn't turn off or back on. I had to do a reset to get it back. Battery was at 5, so sure that wasn't the problem.

Well said! The BookSense works well enough as it is. Why compound problems by releasing the new firmware too soon?

It's not that it's an unaddressed bug, it's that it's a bug which hasn't been fixed yet since we haven't had an update. I would rather see a delay in a firmware release rather than a quick release which would introduce instability. it's because of rushing a release out that there were problems with the first 1.0 release and we were royally bashed for not testing enough. So rather than rushing a release and a fix out, we are taking more time to test better so we don't repeat the same mistakes. This seems to be resulting in people not being happy no matter what we do. If we rush things out too quickly, we are bad, if we take our time to test without rushing, we are also bad.

I personally would vote to not have things rushed. We may lose out on meeting a certain deadline, but I'd rather have stability than a blue ribbon to simply say we did it first.

Many thanks.

Turn right, then go straight!

       Jeremiah 29:11-14 (Amplified Bible)

11For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.

12Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you.

13Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me [as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.(A)

14I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will release you from captivity and gather you from all the nations and all the places to which I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I caused you to be carried away captive.
