Hello all My name is Robin from the UK and I'm newly subscribed. I have been using my Book Courier avidly for a couple of months now and am presently enjoying making my way through the numerous excellent books of PG Wodehouse! I must say, however, that my use of the Book Courier has been alloyed with a large dollop of frustration as my unit seems extremely temperamental. The three main frustrations are turning it on (sometimes I get nothing out of it for literally five or ten minutes of regular pressing of the on button), the fact that it quite often pauses or cuts out when reading, playing an MP3 or even just browsing through the library, and lastly that the 10 second time out is so short that you only have to briefly pause it for whatever reason and you are then back in the indefinite period it takes to turn it back on. I really like it and am just seeking some feedback from others as to whether this is an issue with my unit or the prevailing behaviour of the Book Courier. BTW - I also get numerous firmware errors and occasional unreqquested restoring of defaults. Does any of this sound similar to your experience or should I be shipping it back to the reseller ASAP?
