I bought this device ...
The Chinese have already released the final 1.4 firmware from 25.06.2010
While all like it and did not find significant disadvantages.
In my instance: the stylus is very tightly sat in the groove, it had a bit of sandpaper to fit (kind of a little spoiled, a usable increase).
Stulus very good help zumit and position PDF (other formats as long as I do not actively used).

firmware is not yet final, there is an English July, but it is not localized for Russia, a spokesman for MakTsentr said that soon we will have the new firmware.

Firmware 1.4 release download

It MakTsentr slows them enough one line in the correct configuration, and will be the default Russian exhibit (it seems this is the whole of their work on the localization of the firmware).

Hello everyone. I Bought ONYX 60. Really like.
1. Build quality is simply excellent. Nothing is loose, it looks impressive and reliable.
2. It works very fast.
3. The screen is very comfortable for the eyes - not too dark and not too bright, contrast, variety of fonts and sizes of letters to choose from.
4. Included with the book text has everything you need.
5. Very long enough charge.
Only one problem. Replaced standard screensaver "Karablik", and it is impossible to return. I think will only pereproshika.
Those who had a similar problem?

Here tore screensaver from your reader (if they were due to) ...
if meant saver for inclusion, it is necessary to know in what place it is and you can get it in the same way.
By the way in the firmware 1.4, this screen saver is already in the form of molecules.
You can download them without flashing device.

macros76, not me vayfay interested, I did not check it? pofiksili actually or usually enter ssid necessary?

as the wi-fi worked before ... I do not know.
connected to a home router with no problems, my network (ssid I have not hidden) device is found, I chose it for the connection, then asked for the password ... now every time you connect simply poke on your network, password, he remembered. here herehttp://www.the-ebook.org/forum/viewtopic.p...10&start=40people wrote that it was not possible to connect to your device through WMWifiRouter. It would be great if it was possible to bypass restrictions, because then anywhere can upload the book to the reader from an Internet without access to WB.

Well, if you have no problems with vayfay I think it is necessary and I thank you.
A problem with WMWifiRouter in my opinion is not important - you can easily peretknut the stick out of the book in the CMC (in my book mikroSD worth).

MakTsentr updated firmware:http://www.onyx-boox.ru/support
List of changes in version 1.4.20100811:
1. Change the power management.
2. Fixed encoding change in txt.
3. Fixed a bug in the music player.
4. Other minor fixes.

Do I need to delete all files from the memory card before updating the firmware or the firmware, you can throw in a root and upgrade?

I did not delete, just copied to the replacement of files ... but so can anything from the previous firmware must be tightened

Who has what SD-card cost? slyshel he nesovsemi friends.

I plan to buy an e-book, interested in this model,
but there are a couple of questions:
1. whether there is a built-in dictionary in the book?
2. if there is how to implement it use (plan to read texts in English, so you can poke a stylus
in an unfamiliar word and get the translation)?
Thank you in advance for the answers.

Dictionaries have, the current need to install yourself.
