Hello. I debated on whether to do a teaser or not today, but I figured,
"Why not?".
If you have a folder with many items in it, you will be able to quickly
get to a specific item. For example, let's say that you press right arrow
on a music folder and you have something like 300 sub-folders in it, each
representing a CD you ripped into your BookSense. Let's also say that you
want to play folders 47, 147, and 247. Currently you can use the up arrow,
down arrow, 1, 4, 2, 5, or 3, and 6 keys to navigate around. However when
you want to reach specific item numbers, even this can get tedious.
With the new BookSense firmware you will be able to press the number 8 key
while browsing files and folders and then use the keypad to enter in which
item number you want to move to. So when I first go into the Music folder
which contains 300 sub-folders in it, I can press 8 and then type 47 and
then the OK button. I'm now instantly at item 47 of 300. I can select it
with the 9 key as usual. Now I press 8 again and type 147 and press OK.
Now I'm at item 147 and can press the 9 key to select.
Once all the items are selected, I can simply press the play or OK button
and play those specific folders. Another use is what if I'm in the NLS
folder and I have 150 books and I want to quickly reach book 99. I simply
press the 8 key and type 99 and press OK and bingo, I'm at item 99 and can
now press play on it to load the book.
Since the number 8 key is now used to move to a specific index item, the
delete item key has been relocated to the long press of the number 3. This
makes it more consistent with deleting a mark within a book or file. So
while you are in the file browser, press the number 3 for 2 seconds and
the BookSense will prompt you to delete the item.
We are much closer to getting the new firmware out and will keep you
updated as we have updates to give.
Happy Thanks Giving!
